Hi Fumio,
If you consider the 'count' command applied to an object is similar to
calling an object method, then you would think that the first object you are
addressing the 'count' command to would intercept it and not pass it on to
its ancestors - so in this regard, I guess its not a reasonable result.
As Kerry mentioned, the lingo dictionary says that it will not count the
properties of the ancestors... so I guess either the documentation is wrong,
or the count command isn't working properly.
