When one reads 2/3 of the postings here and things, so what!
My last US passport was the big size and I not only blew through 8 inserts in less than 10 years, but the average spread across them was something like 22 stamps AND I blew through several 2nd passports pages as well, so rather than one every 3 years, it is more like one every 8 months!
The definition? When one walks into ones favorite restaurants or shops in anyone of a dozen cities or countries, the proprietors and workers do not know that you travel that much and just assume that you have not come in for a month or two, and you are able to speak with each and every one of them in their language.

I shouldve copyrighted that 
I think there are a lot of Flyertalkers that travel a lot, and not just fly for work meetings, sales calls, etc. However, as a percentage of population, people that travel "a lot", are a very tiny portion.
