Specifically in this case, there's no reason to show a list of all of the users in the system. What would you do with a list with millions of rows?

A search makes more sense here.

Not much, but that doesn't mean folks won't.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions says "17,335,212 questions " and the pagination goes "1 2 3 4 5 … 346705", if you want a real-world example.
