It does NOT clamp and does NOT refuse: range is the business of the codec that admits the value
from the wire, and a silent clamp here would turn a caller's defect into a plausible number —
the failure mode this whole module exists to remove. Its one job is to name the quantity, at the
one place a bare number becomes one.
