Example usage
function getDOMDepth(node) {
  if (!node) return 0;
  if (node.nodeType !== 1 && node.nodeType !== 9) return 0;
  
  const children = node.children || [];
  if (children.length === 0) return 1;
  
  let maxDepth = 0;
  for (let i = 0; i < children.length; i++) {
    maxDepth = Math.max(maxDepth, getDOMDepth(children[i]));
  }
  return 1 + maxDepth;
}

// Example placeholder (requires DOM environment)
// console.log(getDOMDepth(document.documentElement));
