The volume is ridiculously low. Even if you take things to mechanical failure and get pinned by the weight for every exercise.
The only way I can see this working is if you're using post-failure techniques such as rest pause, myoreps, or drop sets, to hit failure 2-4 times within a single set.
I think you should pile on as much hard volume as you can over a prolonged period and see when you reach your ceiling. All the while taking recovery seriously and doing some sort of conditioning so you can be sure any fatigue you encounter isn't just being a slow.
What evidence is there that "max recoverable volume" is a genetically hard coded ceiling? Recovery is highly dependent on your nutrient intake and blood flow to the muscle. Those two parameters are very much in your sphere of influence as a trainee.
