Neither of the above should be possible, I think. The expression "(x"
logically excludes the expression "x)".
However, "[x,x]" would be valid, and would be a zero-length

No, it's not decoded. It doesn't matte

It strikes me that if you used the same options syntax here that we're

Do we want empty ranges?
The philosophy is that they are essentially the "zero" value of any
range type. Like the number zero, it allows closure over operations that
would otherwise return an error.
For instance, the number zero is useful because you can do things like:
f(x) = 5x + 3;
And even
