So, "every possible number" doesn't include NaN? I think I'm okay with this... will sleep on it.

Yes, I was thinking about that one too. Maybe allowing NaN is the better solution though. Otherwise I would wonder why the plugin resets it to 0.

I think disallowing NaN is a good idea. It is such a common source of bugs that I'd rather just disallow it entirely. If someone really wants an obviously bad value, they can use -Infinity or something.

@Gerrit0 Yeah, that's probably the better solution for now. That way you can be sure to have "a number" as a value.

Let's make the default value explicit so that the test is obvious and doesn't break in the (admittedly very unlikely) situation that the default value is changed.

Sorry, I don't understand. What do you mean by "make it explicit"? Do you mean to create a separate variable for it and use that in the object definition?

I meant specifying defaultValue: 0 instead of letting it default.

@Gerrit0 Well, it turns out it is already specified just that way: defaultValue: 0. It's just a confusing display of the diff. 😄

Doh! So it is, diff is great until it isn't. Looks good to me.
