There is no limit on TD in the room, no self closers in the flat and the kitchen can be next to the flat entrance door.

I asked the same question at Fire College and was told that there is no limit but in practice would be subject to engineering constraints.  Presumably that means structural engineering.

Engineering constraints, is that a technical term for travel distance in a single direction.
I presume that means as high as is practical without it falling down or being a hazard to aviation?
