I myself did 40 interviews last quarter and it was very hard to keep all conversations engaging and interesting. Fortunately having a modicum of standardizing feedback + topics to be covered helps, but I agree with your point that over-interviewing is bad for business.

40 per quarter is very high. In ~2012 Twitter was doing 8 per week for ICs, which is also way too high.
There are more than five weeks in a quarter.
I've done 4 interviews/week for a while. It's not that bad (but I genuinely enjoy it).
