Peculiar genre, perhaps. So is legal and biomedical domain and that
has been getting some recent attention.

As to small, what is considered to be too small? I have 5 million
(uncleaned) tokens  for one language in one subtype of documents
(Resolutions of the General Assembly). Is that too small for the kind
of work you envisage?

If so, what would be a good number? Apologies, if this question has
already been answered before.
