Yes, 2^31 is not possible at all. There are caveats to the actual max array
size, yes, but this is really an orthogonal issue. I think it's best to not
assert about the size here at all, or just assert about a negative value on
overflow. I don't think anything else can or should be done.
The right value of `POSITION_MAX` is still 0x7FFFFFFF.
