That approach does not scale. Via merkle trees, the OpenTimestamps system
routinely timestamps tens of thousands of messages with a single transactio=
n:
https://petertodd.org/2016/opentimestamps-announcement#scalability-through-=
aggregation
Client-side validated .ots files are a necessary requirement to achieve this
scalability.
FWIW the most I've personally done is timestamped 750 million items from the
Internet Archive with a single transaction.

They can also simply delete their copy of the data, making it impossible to
prove anything about it.
