Not necessarily. Second-guessing API design is fraught with error.

You (and I) have no idea what led to the "always 13 elements" decision.
It's entirely possible that requirement was inherited within .NET from
some factor outside their control, such as an unmanaged API, and perhaps
even a factor where it really does make more sense for the length of the
array to always be fixed.

I doubt that the existing design was chosen completely arbitrarily.

In any case, it is what it is. :)
