 	A very cognitive paper, thanks a lot for the reference!

 	Section 2.3 states the same thoughts as mine are -- exclusion of 0 
was just a misdesign, with no important reasons behind it.

 	So I can relax -- my understanding of X is okay :-)

 	Are there plans to remove this "w>0 && h>0" constraint?
