For positive integers $n$ and $m$, consider a multiset of non-empty subsets of $[m]$ such that there is a \textit{unique} partition of these subsets into $n$ partitions of $[m]$. We study the maximum possible size $g(n,m)$ of such a multiset. We focus on the regime $n \leq 2^{m-1}-1$ and show that $g(n,m) \geq \Omega(\frac{nm}{\log_2 n})$. When $n = 2^{cm}$ for any $c \in (0,1)$, this lower bound simplifies to $\Omega(\frac{n}{c})$, and we show a matching upper bound $g(n,m) \leq O(\frac{n}{c}\log_2(\frac{1}{c}))$ that is optimal up to a factor of $\log_2(\frac{1}{c})$. We also compute $g(n,m)$ exactly when $n \geq 2^{m-1} - O(2^{\frac{m}{2}})$.
