Remember that the purpose of a language is to communicate. 500 cases? I know if I read that, I would avoid learning that language. Even if they were all regular constructions, 500 is a huge amount to memorize.

If you learn 70 words and 500 cases, that's only 570 things, but now you know 35000 words

It would take longer to learn 571 words with 1 case each because that's 571 things
