Those are rookie numbers. Many moons ago, I was playing at a website which offered tens of different chess variants, and many other games and their variants -- over a hundred different games. All to be played in correspondence. I would play hundreds of games at the same time.

If you play 10 games lasting an average of 40 moves a day, you make 400 moves a day. That's the same amount of moves if you play 400 correspondence games at 1 move per day.
I think, for playing 3 games per day rapid you would need more time than making 15 single moves in 15 different games. I had a look to the special player @laksshana talked about, and that's no problem. So why setting an upper limit for the number of games that can be played at the same time when the people have no problem to finish all the games?
