They could just noindex them.
Google still needs to crawl them to see the noindex tag. And when Google is crawling a lot of pages on your site, it'll be slow.
Also, it will slow down the crawl frequency if you noindex it
So it's a non problem

One SEO expert who consulted for a bank I worked at wanted us to change our URLs from e.g. /products/savings-accounts/apply by reversing them to /apply/savings-accounts/products on the grounds that the most specific thing about the page must be as close to the domain name as possible, according to them. I actually went ahead and changed our CMS to implement this (because I was told to). I'm sure the SEO expert got pa…
It's just a URL rewrite rule for nginx proxy.
So google's shitty search now economically incentivizes sites to destroy information. Can there be any doubt that Google destroyed the old internet by becoming a bad search engine? Could their exclusion of most of the web be considered punishment for being sites being so old and stable that they don't rely on Google for ad revenue?
Did you notice that nowadays a lot of websites have a lot of uninteresting drivel giving a "background" to whatever the thing was you were searching for before you get to read (hopefully) the thing you were searching for? People discovered that Google measures not only how much time you stay on a webpage but also how much you scroll to define how interesting a website is. So now every crappy "tech tips" website that…

So I guess you think compiled code is even worse, right?
I mean, isn't that precisely why open source advocates advocate for open source? Not to mention, there is no need to "minify" HTML, CSS, or JavaShit for a browser to render a page unlike compiled code which is more or less a necessity for such things.

I know you came here looking for a recipe for boiled water, but first here's my thesis on the history and cultural significance of warm liquids.
Also you might want look into beer as a replacement for water, or mineral oil
This is why I work at archive.org. Is it perfect? No. Does it have value to society? Absolutely.
I adore archive.org. I'm worried though it is becoming somewhat of a load bearing element of civilization, given the importance of shared and accurate history. We need redundancy. ~~I'm also worried about the deletion of old pages on archive because new owners of a domain update the robots.txt file to disallow it, which I've heard wipes the entire archive.org history of that domain. I hope that gets addressed.~~ Edit…

How do they know how much you scroll? Does this mean you get penalized in search results if you don't use Google Analytics?
Surely Google is too afraid of our vigorous pro-competition regulatory agencies and would never do such a thing.
