Going for every Topps card is a pretty wide focus I would say. A clear focus no doubt but still an ambitious one.

I think set collectors will have have higher factors in general because you need to have a lot of lower priced cards. But let's say someone has a nice 52 Topps set, it might be worth $200k overall, with the Mantle $50k of it. So if that is all they had it would be a really focused collection with a Scatter Factor of 4.
