    Yes, I've thought about the edge cases, no damage and full damage, and
    provisionally felt that they should be included for those rare occasions
    when one might want to explicitly indicate those particular damage states
    if a previous author had a different analysis. Obviously these would be
    very rare and even optional at that.

    Respectfully,
