Yes, it's a little confusing that there are like five different types of videos that can appear on a Twitch user's profile, and only two of them count towards this limit.
According to Twitch, less than half a percent of all users currently exceed the 100-hour limit for Highlights and Uploads. Those people will be notified directly, and if they don't correct their ways before April 19, their Highlights and Uploads could get automatically deleted. After that, it won't even be possible to exceed the limit in the first place, so automatic deletion isn't something people will have to worry about moving forward.
If you're part of that half-percent of users, you better fix your situation now.
