Well . . . . . The limit on the level of detail is the size of the paper that the map is printed on.
For instance, I have a map meant to be printed on 36"x48" paper. All the detail is readable.
But many people want that same map printed on, say, an 18"x24" paper. Some of the spacing between lines starts to disappear, and the lettering is harder to read.
Print the same map on 11"x17" paper, and most of the text is unreadable, a lot of linework is smushed together, and the entire map begins to look unusable.
Each time you use a smaller piece of paper, of course you need to use a smaller scale to size it 100% to fit the paper.
The Richter Scale is used to determine the earthquake density. The scale is measured from low as 1 to high as 10.
A large-scale map shows much more detail. For example - a 1:1000 map will show twice as much detail as a 1:2000 one. The higher the number - the smaller the scale is.

the purpose of small scale mape are they are used to show general details, such as political, physical, and economic information.

Yes, there is more space to add detail to a large scale map.
Actually no technical skills needed to check the Freon level. Home central air conditioners have a Freon scale on it. One just need to read the scale and determine whether the level of Freon is sufficient.
A large scale map (covers a small area) shows more detail as there is more space to show detail. A small scale map (covers a large area or even a whole country, etc) doesn't have much space, so any detail is either shrunk or even omitted altogether.
the pH scale
A statement of scale typically provides a written description of the relationship between a distance on a map and the corresponding distance on the Earth's surface. A graphic scale is a ruler-like graphic printed on a map that allows the user to measure distances directly. A representative fraction scale, sometimes called a fractional scale, represents the map scale as a ratio or fraction, such as 1:10,000, which conveys that one unit on the map equals 10,000 units on the Earth's surface.
The Richter Scale is used to determine the earthquake density. The scale is measured from low as 1 to high as 10.
