Do you realize that 10 F9 flights means 10 new second stages and on those second stage someting has to sit and that something whatever that is - is completely dwarfed by ISS and it would have to be a new dedicated vehicle consiting of mostly fuel just to deorbit the sucker in one go.

Original plain AFAIR was to use several Progress vehicles.

And going to graveyard orbit with something like ISS is not just a few whole times more difficult but at least an order of magnitude more.
