I think the level restrictions are removed at 81 because of the amount of available spirit points or something.

At level 81, you should have 243 spirit points from leveling. If you have filled all 42 crew slots, then you should have 210 spirit points from crew.

For story, it's entirely possible to complete chapter 7 (Kyu) and start chapter 8 (Lady Suzuka) before hitting 81+. I'm speaking not only from experience, but also from various tips posted in the comments on various pages of this wiki that say to max Suzuka's skill before hitting 81+, which means that it's actually completely doable to finish chapter 7 and start chapter 8 before lv.81.

Chapter 1 gives 4 points. Chapter 2 gives 6 points. Chapter 3 gives 9 points. Chapter 4 gives 12 points. Chapter 5 gives 15 points. Chapter 6 gives 20 points. Chapter 7 gives 20 points. That's a total of at least 86 points from story.

243 + 210 + at least 86 = at least 539 points

If you stick 250 points into DS, then you should have at least 289 points leftover for HP and AS. You could have 150 AS and 139 HP plus extra, or maybe 125 AS and 164 HP plus extra, or maybe 180 AS and 109 HP plus extra, etc.

Or maybe you'll have 300 DS and 150 AS, and then you'll stick the remaining 89+ points into HP.

Or maybe you'll have 200 DS and 200 AS and the remaining 139+ points go to HP.

If you join a guild, you have another 5 points to use.

I actually finished chapter 8 and started chapter 9 (Kiri) before hitting 81+, so I had an additional 20 points (from chapter 8) to play with. I'm pretty sure a lot of people have unsealed Kiri before 81+. This was back when tower's XP wasn't halved. If it had been halved, then I could have probably finished chapter 9 before hitting 81+ for an additional 20 points again.
