hi guys

if it was up to me i'd vote:

[float 1( -> 1 

[1 2 3( -> 3

[list a b c( -> 3

[set a b c( -> 4

[set( -> 1

[symbol a( -> 1

[a( -> 1

...that's just my personal view...

i think it is at least consistent in the sense, how list-objects work
generally. would you want [list length] to count the selector in a list
starting with a number as well? [1 2 3( -> 4, like [list a b c( -> would
give 4 then?
