what's so hard about printing out 10 or 20 bitcoin private keys?
It's not like bitcoin core has a button you click and it prints out 10 neatly formatted private keys for you. Specially in early versions. You would have had to export them, format them in a way you could split it (as OP claims has done) and then print it out.
Besides why do you think OP means 10-20 keys when he uses the term "quite a bit"? It may be a lot more...
