so, I just checked again the video where he mentions that -- and maybe the 30-40 pages was just an example he was giving, and not applicable to all sites. What he is referring to is ultimately that every site has a "crawl budget", and google limit how many pages it indexes, depending on the site rank/authority.
"Google limits the number of pages it will crawl and index from your website each month. If you dump a thousand pages all at once, Google might only index a small percentage, prioritizing the most critical. Spread your content publishing over time to avoid being perceived as a spammer. This strategy ensures your most important content gets indexed first."
If I’m not mistaken, irrespective of the number of pages you submit, Google will index about 30 pages per month at most.

I have my doubts since that would be literally 28 years of waiting best case haha. I’ll try it myself and report back with what Google does.
