I never said what you think I said.
In fact, I said an opposite - that bigger factors could happen only when
competing structure/algorithm is *not* a balanced binary tree of any
sort.

There is little (not nothing, see below) to do about it under
restrictions of std API. In the absence of restrictions several thing
possible.

Even under restrictions of std API, parent link is not strictly
necessary. In absence of knowledge about expected usage, it's probably
wise to have it. But when the usage is known there are cases where one
would do better without it. Such cases are not even too rare.

And if you wonder, no, I don't think that taken in isolation removal
of parent link could provide measurable gain. It's just one example of
what could be done when you are determined to shrink the size of the
node.
