Don't worry, it can be argued in either direction. C<min> could be the
minimum amount of time between events or the minimum amount of time to
sit idle. My opinion is that either interpretation is equally
intuitive, meaning that no matter which way it works people will get it
wrong 50% of the time. Can you make a solid case for either
interpretation?
