Does more volume mean deeper claims for CCL?

Each dot is one of CCL’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). CCL’s own 9.8 claims/patent is at or below the 12.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
