#2Is the issue here a lack of “Reject All” button? Or strictly the number of partners?

I read the complaint and it seems to have nothing to do with the reject all button and is only about transparency and informed consent.
They state that you cannot reasonably read all those privacy policies and thus you also cannot give informed consent.
At least that is how I understood it

Probably both.
If I understand it correctly giving informed consent for over 1700 tracking partners of a single page isn't realistic. You as a single person cannot be expected to truly understand what it is you are agreeing to when you click accept.

#6I've seen similar on some android apps I think, where it will ask you if you consent to sharing data with partners or something similar.
When you say no there's a huge list of partners you have to disable one by one, it's probably 15 minutes of work to go through them all.
I can't think of an example app right now, but usually it's on first install or something like that. Not sure GDPR applies to apps though.

The issue is that even if you click "Accept" there is no reasonable way to infer that the user has given informed consent, because becoming informed would likely take days or weeks.
As such the conditions for data sharing are not met and it is likely to be illegal.

#8Still wondering how "freely given, informed, specific and unambiguous" is fulfilled by "sure you can opt-out of tracking - by buying a premium subscription. Also, here are our 589 'partners' that all claim legitimate interest" but here we are.

It's the definition of "informed consent". Can I actually go through a couple of thousand 3rd parties and confirm that their policies all conform to my data handling requirements?

GDPR applies to we the people and the organizations who hold our data. Doesn't matter if it's morse code on paper strips.
If we can dictate warnings on tobacco packages, we can dictate the wording on consent banners to not be "We care about your privacy" but instead "We want to track you for profit".
