My electrical panel I am putting up says "do not but more than 150

Is this just saying not to use a circuit breaker over 150 amps ? (This
is a 100 amp panel).

The breakers connect to one of two busbars, one for each hot side/
line. Don't add a total of 150+ amps to one side, e.g., not more than
10 x 15 Amp breakers on one side of the line. Also, try to
intelligently balance things out as much as you can. Don't put all of
the kitchen breakers on one side, for example, since they aren't split
any more.

Little Quibble, the bars are interleaved comb-like and each bar serves
every other slot on each side, otherwise a two pole breaker wouldn't tap
both feeds.
