This is a good lesson for journalists: Use plain language to state true things clearly.

ICE agents reveal daily arrest quotas and surveillance app in rare court testimony Under oath, officers said they were told to make eight arrests a day and given special tech to help choose ‘targets’

Tangentially (because I agree with your assessment), is it years of munitions if they were used this quickly?

(If the answer is "don't be an annoying pedant" I think that's a reasonable response)
