The length limitation is a problem which is belong to technological
discussiale category.
Chinese character is ideographic character, it means that each character
has meaning. so if we want to translate a Chinese character into English,
in many cases,we should use several English words(not just several letters).
Reverse, if we want to translate a English word into Chinese, it's same.
In DNS, there is no meaning, just codepoint which user choose, and user
want to express some meaning. From this point,there is no different among
Unicode.
