"width of notation"; so "ascii-width"...
But then - the "width" of a powertower???
"recursion-depth" - "d" is not used much, but, well it's a mnemonic for derivative, so again... "r" for recursion-level? not used too much otherwise...
Well, better to put this problem aside for another time, I think.
