You don't know what they are going to do. All I know is right now I can't get portals to connect correctly if they are arbitrary sizes, and as you mentioned I can't travel to the portals above 127. I'm building in an amplified world and this is amplifying the problem... Your solution is unacceptable. Its a simple fix in the game that they could change later. If the soution is to make the nether taller that's great! As long as the math works to link portals correctly which right now, they do not.
