Hi Todd, I'd just like to point out one thing. Your confusion here (and in a few related posts) is that you aren't grokking the difference between uint and UInt.
Please correct me if I'm wrong. But if there needs to be an update to docs, it probably should be to a document that clarifies the difference.
