The recommend face width is limited to the smaller value of either 10 times the module or 1/3 of the cone distance (Re). Since Re is a function of the pitch diameter and the pitch angle, as you change the pitch angle, you limit size of the face width.
This is a function of the cutter not of the geometry.
