Speaking wearing a hat:

There is no requirement for monolithic releases. The project can
choose whatever units it likes to release, so long as each one of them
is fully buildable from the materials voted on in the release. If they
want to hold one vote on 400 of them, well, it casts some doubt on
whether the voters actually tried them all, but then again many TLPs
inspire doubt in my mind as to whether voters are actually testing all
the source packages.

If a project is creating 400 discrete "releases", this sounds to me
like an umbrella project.  Consider the ability to "announce" that
a new release has occurred, and the frequency with which those would
be broadcast.

There's nothing wrong with a release model which provides for updated
components within a much larger project, on a faster release cycle,
but clear documentation of which have been updated and which components
are still at their older revision that was previously approved.
