It’s not that they are connecting to 100s of relays and pulling down huge quantities of data. They surgically connect and grab or publish a few notes and then disconnect. My guess is that many users will still stay connected with a small number of larger relays but it’s not a requirement and it will be a limiting factor on how big relays need to be.
