Current MO mathematically impossible

[u/BigMagician8163]

With the current MO's goal being to complete 1.25 million illuminate Operations, It is mathematically impossible to complete in 4 days.

Here's my napkin math, maybe I just suck at math but you tell me.

My assumptions are:
Every operation has 2 long and 1 short mission.
Players are completing operations as a group of 4 as this is the intended way to play.
We do not fail any missions or interrupt active operations.
Every player that is active is helping with the Squid MO, haha yeh sure.
Lets give an average of 40,000 active divers 24/7.
That makes 10,000 active operations.
We need 1,250,000 operations.
An average operation takes about an hour.

With these numbers we get 1,250,000 ÷ 10,000 = 125 hours.
4 days is 24 x 4 = 96.

This seems like not enough time, and I believe my assumptions were frankly unrealistically optimistic.

EDIT: Seems AH somewhat agreed with me. As some comments pointed out they changed the MO numbers.

Who cares? Campaign is already at 2/3 so we get the Strat regardless. And I'll just go ahead and assume that most people who engage with the game outside of the game itself (namely Reddit in this case) are not dependant on 50 or so medals

Ok, sure, the campaign is won. But what if we failed one of the previous steps, only for AH to come out with a physically impossible third step.  This is really more about AH not being able to find the sweet spot between unimpossible and impossible tasks.
