I'd prefer you didn't limit them to such a low number.  OCaml updates
have ~ 180 packages
(https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2022-d3e15b41f5) and
it's a lot easier to do the push myself rather than have to ask
someone.  And I will have to remember each time _how_ to ask someone,
since I do this infrequently enough that I'll forget each time.

What is the actual problem and could it be fixed instead?

315 builds doesn't strike me as being that massive TBH.
