Etymology
Limitedness starts with the familiar word limit, which means a 'boundary' or a point you cannot go past, and ends with -ness, a part that makes a word mean a 'state' or 'quality'. So limitedness simply means the 'state of having limits' — like a small garden inside a fence — which is why it means being restricted in size, amount, or scope.
