...

No.  In a SIZE qualifier, a discontiguous range is perfectly
legal ASN.1   There are examples of this in RFC 2579,
among others.  In this particular case, something like

SYNTAX      OCTET STRING (SIZE (0 | 2..60))

(replacing 60 with whatever the consensus upper bound
should be) would seem appropriate.
