What about grouping them, with specific hidden options by default?
That is if you opt out the group, both are disabled. If you enable the group, you gain the possibility to unfold subcases.
Also if at some point the list become really too long, you might consider an option search filter. Actually, given that we have already more options on several tabs than what can be displayed on a confortable desktop screen, I think this length limit was already crossed a long time ago.
Cheers

Thanks, Amir!
What can people do if they want to see Reference Previews, but not Page Previews?
Currently, nothing. The plan is to offer both features in combination. As for this shared setting, we received different feedback: Some wanted a combined setting to keep the number of user settings small, others wanted a separate setting. For now, we have decided to go with a shared setting.
The Page Previews user preferences will be respected. In a scenario where a user has Page Previews disabled, Reference Previews will also be disabled.If an editor currently has the Reference Previews beta feature enabled and the Page Previews (Popups) feature disabled, will they get both enabled or both disabled after the deployment of the combined feature?
Best,Johanna

Reference Previews will be combined with Page Previews[2], a feature showing previews for linked articles. Both perform essentially the same function: previewing content before deciding to dig deeper, and easily providing more information while reading. Because of their similarities in design and behavior, both Page Previews and Reference Previews will be controlled by a single user setting. This means, all users who currently have Page Previews activated, will also get Reference Previews. Also, all readers, anonymous contributors and new users will see Reference Previews per default if they haven’t disabled Page Previews.
