Most of what has been stated is based on what has been achieved using SFET already...not speculations. Of course there is variation between individuals in beard hair density and distribution. Thus a blanket rule does not apply.

Unlike head hair were donor preservation entails leaving behind as much hair behind as possible to maintain decent coverage on the back and sides of the head, in facial hair harvesting using the SFET protocol ALL visible hair has been removed with successive surgeries. Thus in some individuals, 6000-9000 grafts have been extracted successfully.

Note that most beard hair follicles are singles while most head hair grafts are doubles and triples. Hence, 1,000 head derived grafts would still be worth much more than 1,000 beard hair in terms of coverage value.
