Good math but that's a 4ppm increase every month and that's where the larger really comes in the long term short term is fine to show quick figures but after 12 months of this thats a 48 ppm overall not good this hobbie is all about long term stability and having such a large amount overall that has to be gotten rid of can lead to problems down the road like gha that wont go away etc
PS - I was only using numbers that would be equivalent to a 70 percent one time change. If you actually go to the link - and put in the numbers - you will see no matter what you do - there will be a nitrate level that your tank will stabalize at - you cant just multiply 4 by 12 - and get 48
EDIT - you can multiply 12 x 4 and get 48 - but - not using nitrate and water changes
