That's an inaccurate picture of resource allocation. 100 hours of a globally unique resource could satisfy 100 1-hour demands. You sum those.

That would be one proposal - give 1 hour to 100 different groups.

What you don’t do is sum the 10000 different requests, nor the 100 requests that also want to use 100 hours each.
