The long-paragraph length
Two hundred words is the long paragraph: enough to fill a column without becoming an article. Ten sentences, 1,320 characters, which is close to what a feature block or a tall card holds at ordinary body sizes.
It is a useful middle to design against. A hundred words still reads as a summary, and five hundred behaves like a page of prose that pushes everything beneath it out of view while you are trying to look at it. Two hundred sits where a lot of real body copy sits, so a layout that survives this length will usually survive whatever the writer eventually hands over.
Everything at this length is still drawn from inside the original passage, so there is no repetition to spot. That stops being true above roughly three hundred words, which is why the five-hundred-word page carries a note of its own about where the text starts over.
