`Range#size` should, according to [Official docs](https://ruby-doc.org/core-3.1.2/Range.html#method-i-size),

> Returns the count of elements in self if both begin and end values are numeric; otherwise, returns nil

but it doesn't with beginless non-Numeric Ranges (in Ruby-3.1.2 or earlier).

```ruby
(..?a).size      # => Infinity
(nil..nil).size  # => Infinity
```

whereas it certainly does with endless Ranges

```ruby
(?a..).size      # => nil
```
