I've added upwards of 200-500 jobs within a single job before. It only becomes a pain when you start running into errors. Tracking them down and keeping things running smoothly can be a pain.

I prefer to keep my jil and jil changes as separate job streams and then place them under version control like git.

It makes tracking changes to production jobs over time a lot easier.
