Note that John Pryce had written:

I thought we WERE supporting unbounded intervals, and those are denoted
by having IEEE Inf as endpoints.  A separate motion restricts MEMBERSHIP
to finite numbers, which means that infinite endpoints are not included,
whereas finite endpoints are included.  Topologically both interval types
are closed.
