From what I understood 1000 PSI is the pressure where the DM calls the end of dive: time to start ascending and swimming back to the boat.
It is not unreasonable...
When I was working as a divemester the rule was that it was time to ascend as soon as when one of the divers was at 100 bars.
We did not care of the size of the tank, which was ranging brteeen 10 and 20 liters (twin set). The assumption was that divers using larger tanks were air hogs, requiring them.
So the rule was the same for everyone: at 100 bars, wathever the tank size, it was time to end the dive and to start ascent and deco procedures.
This ensured that most divers emerged with at least 50 bars.
Some divers, indeed, did not meet this goal and surfaced with just 20-30 bars.
Each organization has different rules and customers are supposed to comply with them.
Thumbing the dive at 1000 PSI, wathever the tank size, seems something quite reasonable for me.
