Counted as one choice
Taking this set off the shelf is one decision, so every ranking on this site counts it once: 1 visit, not 5 picks. Where the question is about films rather than choices, the set opens up and all five count.

5 films, and more than one director. Tsui Hark directed 4 of them; Once Upon a Time in China IV is Yuen Bun's. Everything Criterion put in the box is counted here.
5 of these films have never been taken on their own: every visit that reached them arrived through a set. That gap is what "counted once" costs a ranking, and what opening the sets up recovers for coverage.
