Need advice- i think i messed up a batch of 200 cookies

Baking Advice Needed

So I’m new at this local bakery and they use scales instead of measuring spoons and stuff and I’m mostly just a home baker so I’m not used to it. I accidentally put 40g of baking soda in a batch of 200 fairly large vegan chocolate chip cookies when it only called for 31g. It was the end of a long shift, i was in a rush, and i didnt think it would make a huge difference which was a lapse in judgement. I scooped the dough and put them in the freezer to be baked off in a few days.

Now I’m at home and i was sitting here thinking about it so i googled what happens if you add too much baking soda and it seems like i really messed up. Am i fucked?? HELPP
