While the mesh limit (1,000 elements) sounds restrictive, it is sufficient for 2D plane-strain problems like a tunnel under a building or a slope with a weak layer. For comparison, a professional FEM analysis for a dam might use 20,000 elements, but for learning the FEM workflow—boundary conditions, material models, and result interpretation—1,000 elements is perfect.
