Given that my main method of selecting units is currently pressing 1-8 on the keyboard, I don't think I'll ever take more than 10 units into battle myself.
Microing 16+ units would get dull very quickly. It'd stop being squad based combat and start being platoon based combat.
Mostly WMG here though.

thanks for explanation, i suspected that were reasons.. but player (not coder or hard-player) need a reason for this limitation, what do you think?

Number of seats in the dropship maybe ?

A logical explanation for the missions & there the number of soldiers should be limited to the space available in the dropship, as this should also be additional motivation for the player to get new dropships with more seats...
But how does this influence the number of soldiers fighting in the base ? They do not need a dropship to get there...
Marte:
maybe aliens uses soporific gas to get soldiers sleeping?

Only 8 soldiers are on duty at a time. The others are sleeping, taking a shower or in hospital etc., far away from their combat equipment. So they are *ordered* not to participate in the combat and hide instead.
