Can somebody please explain to me what goes on here?

$ limits -u
Resource limits (current):
  maxprocesses-max      512
  maxprocesses-cur       64
$ limits -u 400
Resource limits (current):
  maxprocesses          400
$ limits -u
Resource limits (current):
  maxprocesses-max      512
  maxprocesses-cur       64
$

What's the point of having a shell command to increase the maxproc limit
if it then just immediately reverts back to exactly the same value it had
before?
