Would that give you a different probability of an shard drop based on how many you do at a time for instance I have heard people say they do one at a time and avg. A higher drop rate. Is there any truth to that or would Averages no matter which way you did it would be totally random(which makes more sense with the rates not being self correcting)?
Those people are called liars and idiots.
A lot of superstitions like that come about based on perception, faults in how the human brain naturally processes probabilities, jumping to irrational conclusions, and just plain not knowing how math works. The average is the same whether you do one-by-one or all at once. But you'll get more of those little gambling dopamine hits if you roll one at a time and get three hits in twelve than if you do a lump of twelve and only get three.
That said? A self-correcting die
can do a broad variety of things depending on how the self-correction mechanism is implemented that do not matter here because this game does not use a self-correcting die.
