Length in list-len.pd in the traditional way is calculated by serializing the list using [list split 1] and [list append], which drive a counter. I embedded it into the attached example as a subpatch. Here the conversion of meta-messages to list-messages is happening automatically as well, so this construct counts unlike [list length] as well.
finally i understand, what you [list length] want to behave like. and in my eyes it makes a lot of sense now. from what you are saying i would also expect, that any [list]-object (besides [list trim]) prepends the list-selector to the incoming messages, but it doesn't here for whatever reason.
