The number of holes is a design parameter and the number marked at a time is an implementation parameter. I'd use my Dritz chalk pencil and only mark the spots I needed. They wear off with a few cleanings.... Besides, that many dots MIGHT be a distraction lol ...
But I don't like drills that are too repetitive. I much prefer altering some part of the shot so that you never shoot exactly the same shot twice in a row. That philosophy argues against marking the table permanently.
