This reminds me of large code reviews which have a million different things going on. After a while, people tune out and don't see bigger issues and quality of their feedback goes down, or they give up and say "yeah, all this seems fine to me". Compare that with a smaller code review with fewer things going on and where people end up being super opinionated on minor things. The sort of lesson in this example is if you want to get some design decision through that you know may be controversial, bury it in with a bunch of other changes. (Also related, the idea of announcing negative things on busy news days, i.e. "a good day to bury bad news".)
