I do not think the conflict is a big deal though. When chunk
allocation is enabled, memory_pools_limit can be ignored (in favor of
a different option) or interpreted differently.

  # TAG: memory_pools itemized|chunked|off
  # TAG: memory_pools_limit (bytes) // ignored if chunked
  # TAG: memory_pools_size (bytes) // ignored if itemized

or, simply,

  # TAG: memory_pools itemized|chunked|off
  # TAG: memory_pools_limit (bytes) // semantics depends on memory_pools

or something along these lines.
