Is it 50 because Apple SAYS it's 50, or is it really, truly 50?

In theory, the DHCP server typically hands out a class C address meaning the limit is actually 253 hosts.

Are Apple saying 50 because they're artificially limiting the box to 50, or are they saying that because by the time more than 50 users get online, you're dividing the bandwidth up so much that the user experience degrades?
