A source PDF is chunked, vectorised and then read by a model a chunk at
a time, so a 500 MB upload is not a big file — it is an hour of work
nobody asked for and a bucket that grows for ever. The cap is 20 MB, in
the config default, in backend/.env which was overriding it at
524288000, and in nginx, which was letting 500M through to be refused
by the application afterwards. A backup of .env is beside it.
And a document is deleted where the documents are listed. The endpoint
has always existed and removes the file, the vector collection and the
row — but reaching it meant opening the document first, which is a page
you go to in order to extract from it, not somewhere you visit to tidy
up. Delete, then Delete it or Keep, in the workbench list.
