How many words do any of those have? A simple word count. Like any word processor can provide circa 1980.

A bunch? How is word count relevant?

It’s a simple function that operates on the entire set of data, not just a sample.

You cannot do even a simple function on the entire set of data. Your examples are piecemeal samples, not the law.

You can’t do a simple word count of the law because you do not have access to the law.
