Market makers can use this data to learn the max size they can quote to construct the orderbook. `inventoryBalance` indicates the actual balance available in the Vault. `baseShortLimit` is the conservative amount that MM can quote as short token assuming long token has collateral factor `0`. If the long token has higher collateral factor, the limit would be higher, the adjusted amount it `baseShortLimit/(1 - longTokenCollateralFactor)`. For more specific example, refer [here](broken://pages/yizUTrKNKwplKBFC0jMB#how-to-know-the-largest-order-size-that-can-be-quoted).

The actual limit would be `Math.min(inventoryBalance, baseShortLimit/(1 - longTokenCollateralFactor)`)
