Ideal size for a “block” of tasks

When I have a list of tasks, there have for a long time been an ideal size of it for me.
I may have multiple of them going on at once, but the ideal group for me is what I’d describe as an index card amount of paper.
Smaller and it becomes a bit meaning less to break up the paper. Bigger and it becomes a bit overwhelming.
The thing I like about it is that I can have a few blocks at the end that is more capture or lists I’m creating. And blocks that are a bit more “focused” on the other side.
For example a block with personal routine stuff first, then a block with work stuff etc. And alter through things that way to have progress on multiple things during the day.
