Why are high concentration acids or bases not used in titrations?

Basically titrations are done to either find the unknown concentration of an acid or a base.When using a high concentrated acid or alkali (base) the volume of the base or acid whose concentation we will have to find would become very low. It means that you would only use a little volume of high concentarted acid or base to titrated with a large volume of  low concentartion acid or alkali an this will result in calculation errors , because the degree of measurements will not be very large and hence the final calculation is affected.

There is still another reason for his and I want you to think of it and put it in the comment and if it is right I will reply back congratualating your knowledge and if it id wron I will tell you why it is wrong.
