I agree that many per page would be unacceptable. I said 3-4 per book.

I read a lot, and for traditionally published books, 3 or 4 small errors per book feels normal and acceptable. Any more than that and my eyebrows start to go up.
In my experience, some indie books are exceptionally well edited, and some are not. Many popular authors fall in the latter category, and I have to assume that readers love their stories so much they’re willing to overlook subpar editing.

No worries.
