Does more volume mean deeper claims for Doppler?

Each dot is one of Doppler’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). Doppler’s own 16.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
