Q: ... why the hard limit to nine lights?

A: It is because you need only one keystroke to select the first 9 lights. If I want to support more lights I need to find a different way to do this. The on/off-switch is currently possible by pressing the light-number again. The goal was to use only as much keys and keystrokes as necessary.

I could map the on/off-switch to a seperate key or completely sperate these functions to different keys; maybe "y" = on and "n" = off. I have to think about it.
