Most clouds these days do have a limit on maximum version retention. Otherwise you'd effectively get infinite storage for free.

If a cloud storage provider doesn't charge for infinite version, that's not very different from offering "unlimited storage" plans: They have pretty good statistics of how much the average user really uses on an "unlimited" plan and will price their services accordingly.
