I agree there is no simply way of doing this with returns, paragraphs, multiple fields, and... However, I am sure if someone wants to get really fancy they could write a JavaScript rule to do this. And then, only run the rule when you want to see that specific case. The reason we do not have this, probably coincides the features we *do* have to help text fit, flow text, or to say text is not fitting a frame.

The paragraph and text frame would have to be populated by one rule. Another rule would basically do a full composition and check the longest/shortest, skipping every record. Then on the last record, the best/worst case would be rendered to a record. You can get trickier or stay simply depending on what you wish to accomplish. For example there is a difference between how many characters are printed and how may character a return tagged text may have, if there are tags in the text.

I have not actually tried this, but conceptually should work. If someone gets it to work, send it to me and I will give it to someone to put up on the knowledge-base.
