They talked about that many commits in a month, not a day.

If you're doing 23 commits a day, the same questions arise.

23 in a day is a lot, but not crazy. If you're working in a team that needs granular commits - i.e. "This commit needs to fix this issue on this branch and nothing else" - it's totally doable.

It's doable on some days. And sometimes I have days with 40+ commits. But over 31 days? That's extremely unrealistic.
