I’ve often found that it gives one estimate when multiple packages are

That result defies common sense. Less remaining work has to take less,
not more (much more), time.
Common sense isn't common and, well, often doesn't make sense.
If there's a bunch of small builds skewing the "time per build" estimate
down, as they drop off the list the estimated time per build will go up,
and if the skew is serious enough it can even make the total estimated
time go up ...
