That's objectively false. Getting an accurate word count is trivial. (And, again, word count is the more meaningful measurement of quantity of content.)

>I would not be opposed to a more qualitative measure, such as "I have read much Latin today" or "I have read little Latin as of yet."

That's great that you're so open-minded, but it has no bearing on the present discussion. A subjective measurement like "a lot" or "a little" might be useful if the topic was an individual deciding whether he was challenging himself sufficiently or not.
