Why limiting rhymes the way it does
In our engine, limiting registers as a three-syllable word on the high /ɪ/ (/ɪ/) that lets the nasal carry the tail. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 26, assonance 12,783, and consonance 3. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With limiting, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
