High vocabulary and slowing dow the forgetting curve through sheer exposure.

Forgetting curve

So I have found a Japanese site talking about ways to learn a lot of english quickly
For English word list.etc and I have never heard or thought about this approach before or heard of it. Essentially, the idea is that if you have a book of many vocabulary words (1,000) you spend way less time reviewing the word and instead make up for it by more frequent exposure via flash card or book. (I guess also adding it all into an SRS app and doing that too?)
He recommends spending only 30 seconds or so on a word getting its basic meaning and moving on. So each “lap” your making is slowing down your rate of forgetting until it’s not an issue.
So getting through 1,000 won’t take too long and then you repeat the “lap”
Kind of a Problem is that writing kanji kind of throws a wrench in this strategy.
But I’m thinking about trying this. Does the method have a name?

(Btw he also says that the brain is “designed” to forget and that In actuality forgetting many words not a bad thing or weakness but it’s how the learners. that is an interesting thought. That the brain is essentially a minimalist, always “throwing out” information it doesn’t need i.e not enforced.
(random dreams, Japanese vocabulary.ect)
Has anyone tied this? What do you think? Is the correct path I should be taking?
Thanks
