In a toy model of gauge and gravitational interactions in D ? 4 dimensions, endowed with an invariant UV cut-off ?, and containing a large number N of non-self-interacting matter species, the physical gauge and gravitational couplings at the cut-off, ?g?g2?D?4 and ?G?GN?D?2, are shown to be bounded by appropriate powers of 1/N. This implies that the infinite-bare-coupling (so-called compositeness) limit of these theories is smooth, and can even resemble our world. We argue that such a result, when extended to more realistic situations, can help avoid large-N violations of entropy bounds, solve the dilaton stabilization and GUT-scale problems in superstring theory, and provide a new possible candidate for quintessence.
