A safety stop on the number of pages one sweep will walk.
The walk is bounded by the collection, not by this; the bound exists so
that a CUBE which never reports a short page cannot spin forever behind
the prompt. Reaching it is reported, never silent — a truncated index
that says nothing is the defect this whole slice exists to remove.
