For browse abandonment specifically I usually throttle sends at the start and watch first 1k events before opening it up. Also log every trigger condition in a sheet so I can sanity check volume vs expected traffic.
Not perfect, but it’s saved me from a few near misses. Curious if your identity tool inflated the reachable list more than expected, 45k firing at once feels like a segmentation mismatch somewhere.
