What conditions would cause `getLogs` requests to be "too broad" and "may get dropped"?

See original GitHub issue

The ethers provider.getLogs() documentation mentions the following:

Keep in mind that many backends will discard old events, and that requests which are too broad may get dropped as they require too many resources to execute the query.

I have two questions about that statement:

Are there any specific conditions that make a request “too broad”
Would the requests be dropped silently? Would an error be thrown? If n logs are returned from a single request, would n-1 logs be returned in the case of a log “drop”?

I recognize these may be questions for Infura (or another provider), so feel free to close this and I will ask there. Thank you!

@ricmoo I’m going to open a PR with a proposal for the fix. I’ll reference #1814 in that PR.
