Agreed...I’ve done it multiple times it’s not as hard as you think.
Not for me. More of something easy is just more of something easy.Is it a goal worth shooting for?
Reading the alphabet 500 times is very tiring and a struggle to do

It's like deciding to read the alphabet 500 times instead of a 500 page novel.
Reading the alphabet 500 times is very tiring and a struggle to do, but does this make it a valuable exercise? I think not.
Is is tiring or a struggle? Surely it is just boring? You won't get any better at the alphabet, or anything else for that matter, by repeating it 500 times. If you can do the alphabet once, you can do it again.
But if you can only do, say, 100 squats in a row, training to do 500 squats means you have got better at squats. And it may mean you get bettter at other things.
I just don't think squats and the alphabet are at all comparable...

It's just that there are other things I could be doing with my time giving me more gains than 500 squats. Anything repeated a lot is annoying, but I don't equate annoying with "good" or "progress". I could stand at attention for 10 minutes, or 10 hours, and I wouldn't be getting "better" at standing attention doing it longer - it isn't something you need to be able to do for 10 hours.Is is tiring or a struggle?

I think it is a legit goal and will probably benefit nearly all things fitness related while having minimal hinderance.
It seems inefficient. I would go for a mix of regular, one leg, hindu, and skater/shrimp squats, and pistols or progressions to pistols.
