Is this any different from logging into the Google search console and submitting your sitemap/index request?

I submitted 1,900 pages in September and it has yet to look at 600. It did 4 this month.

I wish I had been more picky with my sitemap but I thought including all URLs was the goal. I at least properly weighted them but that doesn't seem to do much.

If the organic results are too good someone might click on one of them instead of a sponsored link or advert. De-indexing/non-indexing helps to avoid that outcome.
Same here.
A little reading would get you the answer: https://seogets.com/blog/google-indexing-script
The info on 24 to 48 hours waiting time is wrong. I just submitted a few new pages (not yet indexed). They got indexed in less than 4 hours.
Submitting manually takes sooooo long.
same result from what I've seen, but not scalable for larger amount of pages
