Sheer number of missiles also can overwhelm anti-missile missiles. The only way to defend against something like this is with energy weapons that don't have physical ammo to run out of.

Even then there'll be similar upper limits in terms of overwhelming the system, Israel has all the munitions it needs for the iron dome, you just simply can't be everywhere at once.
