If I get several hundred new valid natural links and they don't count because they were acquired too quickly is the same as a penalty.

Stop worrying so much. CNVI is right that some folks are overthinking this.

Remember that timing is only one aspect among many that the algos will look at. Even if the timing of your links is unusual, that won't be a make-or-break factor on its own.
