What if I'm doing it to block signals from roughly half the 60 other APs with half a dozen devices each I have broadcasting nearby?

Then it'll do literally exactly the same thing as above, but with a lower noise floor than otherwise. Whether lowering airtime contention (or, rather, lowering airtime contention for one station while not doing so for others, unless you're talking about putting a layer of foil wallpaper up on a wall lmao) in exchange for all that is a net benefit for you, I couldn't say. If it's all wifi6 or higher though, I wouldn't bother.

lmao

That is near exactly what I was considering, I live between an apartment building and a park, more or less.
