the white left son free of items.

+Occasionally, we repeat this process once again and we concatenate the resulting lists
(we append the latter list to the former, using the smaller of the two \<ckey>'s). This
makes the lists grow longer and we want to do that roughly on every other level of the
tree. The exact condition will be that either the rank of the current vertex is odd,
(we report this by setting its \<ckey> to $+\infty$), the current vertex is no longer
needed --- the items would just pass through it unmodified. We therefore want to
remove it. Instead of deleting it directly, we rather make it point to its former
-grandsons and we remove the (now orhpaned) original son. This helps us to ensure
+grandsons and we remove the (now orphaned) original son. This helps us to ensure
that both sons always keep the same rank, which will be useful for the analysis.
When all refilling is done, we update the suffix minima by walking from the current
$$\ell(v) \le \max(1, 2^{\lceil \<rank>(v)/2 \rceil - r/2}).$$

Before we estimate the time spent on deletions, we analyse the refills.

by rebuilding the whole data structure completely after $n/2$ deletes. This
increases the number of potentially corrupted items, but at worst twice, so it
suffices to decrease~$\varepsilon$ twice.
The first two steps of the algorithm are trivial as we have linear time at our
disposal.

complexity with only $\O(\log^* n)$ random bits.
