What things hold us from allowing this to be LONGTEXT? Will fields occupy much
more space on disk as I thought and only? I had only things one from "cons" and
here people already thought the same:

"The only difference is the length field in the row data. Using MEDIUMTEXT
instead of LONGTEXT saves 1 byte per record. If you have 100 million records,
that saves 100 MB."

no more cons from having LONGTEXT?
