Example: I want to make a list of 5.000 things to buy. User can pick out some things. So I can only have 32 things in this list, right?
no, like I said. 2^32. Thats 1 billion things, give or take.
Serialisation is just a way of turning a program object into a string, it can be as long or as big as any string, which will depend on what field type you are using, but is going to care alot more about the overall size of the field than the number of items you serialized.
I'd have said you were trolling, but you have a post history here. It's very confusing.
No, the 32 items rule never comes into effect. It's 2 to the power of 32.

"profile field elements within one checkbox profile field"
I have no idea what this means, so cannot comment with any certainty, but I have never heard of any aspect of 32 bit architecture directly translating into a 32 item limit for any coding object in any coding language, so I think you were given some bad advice.
My advice would be to try it out, see what happens.
