Richard, can you please clarify your feedback?

Richard,

That is an invalid transformation: e.g., consider x=3, y=4, CST=2.
Can you please clarify?

Thanks,

Eugene

Do we already handle x < y || x <= CST to x <= y - CST?
That is, the XXX_MIN case is just a special-case of generic anti-range testing?  For anti-range testing with signed types we pun to unsigned when possible.
