First, the limit is 100 Wh. This translates to about 27,000 mAh for standard cells but if you have cells stacked in series the limit would be less.
Second, the limit is for carry-on. You don't check lithium rechargeables, period. (If one decides to go into runaway in the passenger compartment people will deal with it, the power limit is to limit how bad it can get given that it will probably just have to burn out, on-board resources typically will not suffice to extinguish it. If one goes into runaway in the baggage compartment nobody will know and they'll be facing a baggage fire.)
TSA carry-on baggage: Yes, Maximum capacity: 27,000 mAh.
This product 60,000 mAh

At the same time, I don't think we've ever used the AC outlets on our Jackery 300 (and solar panels) we take camping with us. Lights, fans, phones and laptops, power tool batteries... it's all charged by USB. We have used the 12v port for electric blankets, but you can get versions of those that work over USB as well.
Edit that's not really an edit: Upon further consideration, I believe my girlfriend's current laptop is AC charging only, so she's probably used the AC outlets.
The bottom line is I think it's definitely valid to encourage people to consider whether AC outlets would be beneficial, given there may not be significant trade-offs. But some people may only need the capability to recharge the family phones and tablets for a long weekend or something.
One other thing to consider is whether you might be better served by multiple batteries, which can offer more flexibility. Even with our Jackery, we still pack a couple small power banks.
