I would understand a situation like that to happen, but what I fear more is delays to happen on a regular basis because Arrow overloaded themselves with more that they can handle (except if they hired a significant amount of new producers, but I don't think they did).
I also hope that more authoring / encoding houses will be handle high-quality restorations like David does, because he can only do so many titles at a time.
Indeed, Indicator have already admitted that David won't be doing every one of their titles in future. In the UK alone he has been doing a lot of titles for Arrow, Eureka, Signal One, StudioCanal (and probably BFI too, I just haven't noticed) on top of all of those. He's definitely doing The Thing and Carrie for Arrow, so I expect he'll be doing some of these bigger titles from Arrow too (most likely The Apartment, probably the upcoming Noir and Rohmer sets).
The mass delays may be more common in the next year or so, if they do get into trouble. They recently announced a string of delays to their Academy slate, and I could see the same happening again in the next few months. We'll see - they've certainly been churning out quality all year around, so perhaps their team has expanded to keep up with the workload?
