Based on your numbers, a three month shut down would mean a backlog of some
1800 articles that would have to be dealt with in some other way. You may
think this is insignificant enough to dismiss and ignore, I don't.

Only if we expand the speedy deletion criteria
accordingly. We really
don't
want to deal with a three month backlog of garage
bands and ads for

Muffler Shop.
Straw man. Wikipedia runs 4000 new articles/day, 2000 of which are shot on
sight; AFD is maybe 200 articles a day *nominated* at present, which is a
trickle by comparison. It really will not make substantial difference
unless people start nominating to make a point. Which is shooting
behaviour.
