@neverything, thanks for your post. I used your example to make something for a project I’m working on, but all I needed to do was count number of field and apply different conditions. Here is my stripped down example below:
<?php
// get the count on the repeater field
// mabye use get_sub_field() instead of get_field() if it's nested
$count = count( get_sub_field( 'the_field' ) );
// begin $count conditions
if ( $count > 1 ) { ?>
// greater than 1
<?php the_field( 'great_than_1' ); ?>
<?php } else { ?>
// less than 1
<?php the_field( 'less_than_1' ); ?>
<?php } ?>
