Oh, I knew I shouldn't have brought this up (I watch about 1200). Can I argue that 1000 would be low? If 200 sysops each watch 1000 pages, that's at most 80% of WP under observation?
I'm not even a sysop and I have approaching 1200 pages on my watchlist. Most of them are pretty low in edit traffic, though. I expect that list could and will usefully reach 10,000 easily with time.
I certainly hope having a large watchlist isn't going to become something to be taken as prima facie evidence of ill intention.
