OK, you don't think it should do so, then what do you think it should
do?  ... makes ranges excludes the end point.  When the end point is
floating point number, what should be the max value of the range, that
should be less than (and not equals to) the end point?

I don't think ((end_obj-1).ceil) is not the best value for #max, since
we don't define excluding end point by ((end_obj-1).ceil).  yet, at
least.
