Explain pull request
The policy docs don't say anywhere whether the minimum and maximum values specified on policy rules are to be interpreted as a closed or open interval (that is, whether the endpoints are included in the interval). Most real world policies seem to treat these min and maxes inclusively, e.g. parking for a max of 2 hours or a 70 MPG speed limit. You're not in violation until you go over those maximums. So this change clarifies that min and max values on policy rules are meant to define an inclusive (or closed) interval where values equal to the min and max match the rule.
