As others have stated that bokeh is the quality of the blur not the amount, when we have a large amount of blur the quality of the bokeh needed to produce a pleasing OOF area is less. When the amount of blur produces overlapping patterns the quality if of the bokeh the lens produces becomes more important.
Here I have enough separation from the background that the quality of the lens bokeh is less important as there is more separation with the OOF areas
Here the quality of the bokeh the lens produces is more important in creating a more pleasing OOF area as the background is not so heavily blurred with patterns that can cause problems
Next is a lens can produce better or not pleasing bokeh depending on whether the OOF area falls in front of focus plane or behind, some lenses can produce good bokeh front and back.
A real challenge for a lens bokeh is having both objects in front of the focus plane and behind it with repeating patterns near the subject.
Also there is the quality of the bokeh balls, the highlight or small light point sources. Lenses can produce cat eyes, onion ring, color fringe or nice round bokeh
One may what to take an image with less exaggerated OOF areas while maintaining pleasing bokeh in those OOF areas.
Here I was using ƒ 22 but still wanted the OOF area to be pleasing so the lens used is one that has pleasing bokeh
