> It quickly becomes obvious when you have too many active projects
The issue I'm discussing isn't the number of active projects, but the number of someday/maybe projects.
> Great if you're actually getting all that non-work stuff done, but I just can't imagine you're doing hundreds of non-work items each week.
See paragraph above.
The issue I'm complaining about is that GTD tells you to review the Someday/Maybe list often (e.g. every week). I'm pointing out the infeasibility of that. Culling the Someday/Maybe list is fundamentally problematic in GTD, as the whole point is to get these ideas out of our head and into a list somewhere.
