28.7% would be the theoretical limit for a massive consolidation tx.
28.7% of the inputs. You cannot get 28.7% savings for the whole transaction. That's what I was trying to clarify.

By massive consolidation tx I mean a tx where the total weight of the tx is dominated by the weight of the inputs. E.g. hundreds of inputs and a single output. For such a transaction you can approach the 28.7% savings limit.

oh! like a 1 output tx. yes good point, sorry. (i was focusing on coinjoin as the likely reason for a huge transaction).

Further to that of course: coinjoin aside, just considering "batching" - that is by far the main concept in people's head when they think about CISA.
You're still very right to raise it though, for a very unusual class of consolidation tx, it is indeed possible to get that much higher (but still small!) saving.
