I'm confused.

The cng_no_recipents() function in the withlist script doesn't print
any max_num_recipients values. Where are you seeing these 'prints'?

Do you perhaps have a cached page in your browser that's showing and or
setting the 'old' value?

BTW, for this specific example you might just as easily use
bin/config_list with an input file containing

max_num_recipients = 100

even if you ultimately plan to do it for all lists. It comes down to
whether it's easier to write a python script to do the change via
withlist vs. a shell or other script to run config_list for all lists.
