I can't answer this for you because it's objectively very subjective, but if I were to give advise it would be to minimise regrets. Which option, if you didn't make it, would you regret more? I'd also add that "meni

Exactly, 1000 PRs per week probably equates to around ~100 engineers worth of output. Hard to do an exact ROI, but they're probably saving something like $20,000,000+ / year from not having to hire engineers to do this work.
