You're miscalculating. For N tuples it samples approximatly 1.5*N^(2/3)
so that would be a bit less than 50+150 samples (my little script
suggests 197 samples).
$ perl -MMath::Complex -e '
for $i (1..1050) {
if( $i < 50 ) { $s++ }
else {
if( $i > $t ) { $s++; $t += cbrt($i); }
}
}; print "$s\n"; '
197

Well, if the tuple count always stays under 50 then it will always
sample. At the time it decides whether to sample or not (the beginning
of the node) it obviously has no idea what will be returned.
Have a ncie day,
