Oct 17, 2017 at 11:51 comment added Tester101 @JimStewart I think that idea comes from the fact that in residential work, you're usually dealing with 240V circuits for single larger load appliance (30,40,50 amp). It's not that common to be dealing with 240V 20A circuits in homes (in the US), so it's easy to think the limiting factor is the voltage, when in reality it's the equipment that will be connected.

Oct 16, 2017 at 22:37 comment added ThreePhaseEel @JimStewart -- can you get me a Code cite on that please? I'm not sure where this belief stems from, but I haven't been able to put it on a solid footing at all...
