I think it depends more on the rapid unloading of the card. I will start loading and then unloading after waiting some time in different amounts and hopefully won't get shutdown.
It's a computer that flags the loads. And right now, the computer's programmed to flag even loads. They can add a flag for $5K/mo loads anytime - and I'm sure that they will eventually.
