 Pedantic ticket.

 In the letter in Joy's office where we enter the name of a carousel horse,
 we can write many more letters than fit on the screen, but the original
 limits input to what fits on the screen, e.g. many 'i' but only few 'M'.

 In ScummVM there appears to be some limit to number of chars, but it may
 extend off the visible area.
 In the recording, I press 'M' 10 times, then backspace them. In the
 original, the input never proceeds beyond the fourth 'M', unlike ScummVM
 (but we only *see* the first four).
