still assur to invite a goy for a yom tov meal.

Not necessarily. There’s nothing that says you can’t have them over to eat. You simply cannot cook explicitly for them, but if you have them over in a large enough crowd, it’s not nearly as much of a problem. I would cook the same amount for 16 as I would for 12. As a proof, if I were cooking for 12 and they called at the last minute and said “can we bring four more people over, is it okay?” my answer would always be yes — because I ALWAYS overcook.
