I would be concerned that super high reps will eventually cause problems with your joints: repetitive motion injuries.

Unless you make very unnatural motions I'm not convinced that'd it'd matter much relative to the increased protection from muscle gain to take more of the load.

But frankly, I don't think anyone will or should keep up those extreme rep ranges anyway - it was brutal and took way too much time.

Much better to load up a bar and get the same work done in a fraction of the time.
