Gulp. I'm pretty(!) sure there was a reason for changing it in the
other direction... [I have a vague recollection of pretty(pretty(x))
!= pretty(x) or something like that] Are we quite sure that it is not
the caller that needs to be a little more lenient in the bounds
checking?

OTOH, it's in code you wrote yourself...
