Is the coffee can a half-barbell (ultra-safe low return, missing the high-flyers) strategy, or the Boglehead/Midas (set & leave decorrelated stocks) strategy?

Interesting article ! It makes sense to buy and hold forever. Some would get rotten but some would outshine the rest. However, in the current times when your portfolio is at your fingertip and availability of live tracking of stock ticker, how do you implement such strategy. Would you keep creating new portfolios as a sort of coffee can and move on to build new portfolio and on... in such case, how do you set the upper limit of portfolio in terms of no. of stocks and $ allocated to it?
