*HochHom */thing(s)/ = /almost all of the //things/ is not found in 
canon, but I think no one would find it exceptional.

/thing/ *HochHom* = /almost all of the thing/ is found in canon; 
/thing/*Hoch* = /all of the thing/ is not. The latter is an 
extrapolation based on the former.

You're asking about explicit plural suffixes or their lack. The answer 
is we don't know.

If I had to guess, I'd guess that *chabmey Hoch* /pies' allness/ refers 
to the totality of the group of pies (rather than to the pies 
themselves), *HochHom chab* means exactly the same thing as *HochHom 
chabmey,* and *chabmey HochHom* /pies' almost-allness/ refers to the 
not-quite-totality of the group of pies.
