Not that Im trying to de-rail the thread but how often to PF humble bundles pop up? Is there a pattern to it?
So I've actually made a (possibly not exhaustive) list to try and predict when the next one will happen and what it will include:
Hell’s Rebels: February 24-March 9, 2016
Iron Gods: January 11-January 25, 2017
Shattered Star: February 20-March 6, 2019
2e beginner’s bundle: July 15-August 5, 2020
Monster Lore: December 9, 2020-January 4, 2021
Exctinction Curse Bundle with a physical copy of the Bestiary: May 20-June 10, 2021
Starfinder: July 29-August 26, 2021
Beginner Box/Abomination Vaults: December 9 2021 - January 8 2022
PF1e Player Options with physical copy of the World Guide: March 12-April 9 2022
Starfinder Armory: May 21-June 11, 2022
Strength of Thousands: August 22-September 7, 2022
Pathfinder/Starfinder Holiday Bundle including Quest for the Frozen Flame: November -December 2022
As you can see, they used to do about one a year, until the past couple of years when they've ramped it up to 3/4. Though keep in mind that last year a part of the reason why they did so many is because it's a big anniversary year for Paizo. Nonetheless, about 2 per year contain a full AP, and it's not always the best way to predict what will or won't get a hardcover release. Abomination Vaults got bundled the same year it got a hardcover release, so Paizo is clearly ok with making humble bundles out of APs that they also intend to compile in hardcover form.
