Chat GPT answered my question above. EWR ATC is Philadelphia based but not the same group that controls PHL.

So at 350 knots every 30 seconds an aircraft covers 3 miles.
So all the aircraft in the EWR radar sectors in 30 to 90 seconds covered 3 to 10 miles with out separation ensured.
I prefer separation ensured.
I did hear an EWR ATC tell an airborne pilot requesting services "squawk vfr get off my frequency I don't know where you are".
