When I rewrite the command to tal:replace "batch" and surf to it, it displays the object values of every object in the quotes folder. That's what inspired me to measure the len. So, "batch" is not a number, but "num" is, and I've proven this by having the scriptlet print out that number.

AJ says I shouldn't call all those objectValues into memory. Okay, what's a way around that? I just need the number ;)

In addition there is no need to call objectValues just to determine the
number of all objects within a container. objectValues() will load
*all objects* of the folder *into memory*. Don't do that.
