I'd say to pick a number I'd go with 3, though I swap wheels and cassettes around based on whether I'm training, racing (road vs. crits) or climbing mountains so it's not as simple in my situation. Usually you'll trash the 15 - 19 range on a cassette since those cogs are used more than the extremes.
