I agree having the `x` in the diagnostic could be confusing based on the
context.
I could make sure both value of the range are inclusive and go with wording
like:
`integer value %0 is outside the valid range of values (%1 through %2) for this
enumeration type`

Apologies, not intentional. I will add a test with my next update, hopefully
with new diagnostic wording.
