Why is sails.js limiting responses by default? - node.js

Question

I created a default sails.js install with all default options on top of a simple mysql database. Currently, I have a table with 91 records.
I have an ionic front end that loads the list in that table, but it's displaying 30 records.
I used postman to hit the sails.js url (http://localhost:1337/list) and that is showing 30 records returned).
While it's a duplicate effort, I hit the url (http://localhost:1337/list) directly in a browser and it still returns 30 records.
Is there a default to how many records sails.js will return?
If so, how do I remove this default so sails.js will return all the results rather than a subset? I don't want to paginate, I want the full list.
PS I have checked the sails.js model I created to verify I don't have any funky limiting stuff and it's uber barebones.
I have no custom code and the entire sails.js install is the default minus the db connection, the skeleton controller, and the models.
Here's my model:
module.exports = {
identity: 'List',
attributes: {
id: {
type: 'integer',
primaryKey: true
},
name: {
type: 'string',
unique: true,
required: true
},
user: {
type: 'integer'
}
}
};

You are using blueprints for find action.
Go inside config/blueprints.js file and check all comments...
There you will find:
/****************************************************************************
* *
* The default number of records to show in the response from a "find" *
* action. Doubles as the default size of populated arrays if populate is *
* true. *
* *
****************************************************************************/
// defaultLimit: 30
Change it as you prefer.
