I vote NO on Motion M0032.02 Midpoint



Hi,

I vote NO.

The reason for my vote is that the text of the motion is a bit too
complicated, and as shown by Vincent, this has some adverse effect with
respect to the intuitive properties one can expect from the midpoint.

Note that I am perfectly fine with the idea of choosing an arbitrary
value lying in the input interval (that is, zero for entire intervals,
extremal values for half-infinite intervals) with some best effort
mandated for the finite case : returning the mathematical midpoint
rounded to nearest whenever this value lies in the input interval. So my
vote would become YES once the text of the motion is improved.

Best regards,

Guillaume
