I'm not sure what you mean. I thought it is appropriate to count the
number of approximations to a given value v, i.e. count how many v'
there are with
    v' < v
in the usual CPO ordering, that is Cons _|_ [1,2] < Cons 3 [1,2] etc.
That count is either large or small.

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. :)
