Adobe have not said there is a limit on total files. But there are limits on the number of submissions you can have waiting to be accepted. The number of files is a secret, and likely to change, so people can't game the system. My personal recommendation is to submit no more than 10 images if you are a newcomer (that is, submit 10, wait for accept/reject, then submit more). Newcomers often see a lot of rejections, as they learn what Adobe wants, and if Adobe had to reject 100 images at once, they would probably block you forever for wasting their time. The time in review varies, but for AI and illustrations it may be several months. This delay was caused by AI users who submitted unreasonable amounts of generated images, mostly of very poor quality. (AI generally needs a lot of time consuming checking and correction to meet Adobe's standards, so generating thousands in a short time, of acceptable quality, would be impossible).

Good luck with your future in stock!

Why should there be a 10k limit? The 100 pages is a display limit, if I'm correct.

yeah, it's just the page display limit. I'm pushing 40,000 images right now but still have the 100 page display limit on my profile

Did you check page 100 to see if more assets come up?

"Reminder" is not a data issue. It is telling you that a release is needed. You should deal with every picture, by giving a release or deleting it if you cannot. Given your success rate, you can probably safely have more files pending, maybe 100. 

You should not make a second account. I suspect Adobe will block both/all of them if they find out. Every one of your pictures has to be carefully reviewed by a person, and Adobe will limit numbers, to make sure all contributors have a fair chance to be accepted. Don't overload the system, and don't game it... because of the human limit.
