They break because Porsche's plastic parts ...
... S U C K ! ! !
The limit position has nothing to do with them breaking.
The design of the regulator puts a lot of strain on the plastic piece when the window is at its highest point (whether the limits have been reset or not.
I've been able to repair some regulators by replacing the broken plastic piece with a bicycle break brake adjustment screw.
Happy Boxstering,
