When working with coarse filtrations, dots can be obscenely large for Betti numbers or persistence diagrams, when the multiplicity of a feature is too large.
There should the default size of a dot should be computed as a function of the coarseness of the bins, so that in the case of maximally large dots, overlap of neighboring dots is not too extensive. On the other hand, the minimum size of a dot should also not be too small. Perhaps this latter constraint takes precedence, if both cannot be achieved.
