Perhaps another word that could fit in the first case (truncate/bounded/within/clamping) is `flat`. Along the same lines of the `flatMap` which returns only non-nil values, here we have an empty array instead of nil when the range doesn't apply at all.
let array = [1,2,3] array[flat: 0..<10] // [1,2,3] array[checking: 0..<10] // nil I'm still not sure if `clamping` is the right word.
