I can fill in the approximations if really needed but most of them should be easy to error-bound.

The general idea is the following: If you have a set in B that is smaller than everything you've found so far (say T), then either something of size n-(sqrtn ish) is a superset of T but not a superset of anything found so far, or some set we have currently found is an edit distance of (sqrt n ish) away from T. Either way, we can then recover some new set in e^(sqrt n ish) time or terminate the algorithm.
