It could be argued that CFJ 1584 sets the precedent that 1000 is
reasonable, but the intent of that case was never to set such a
standard.

I will note that performing the same action 1,000 times takes at least
9 copies and 14 pastes; the same action 10,000 times takes at least 13
copies and 17 pastes, which is not significantly more effort.
