--------------------------------------------------------------

Proposed PR merged with a minor tweak for a conflict. Thanks all involved! I think we should do some more work around this, e.g. inconsistent {{containsWithinBounds}} behavior, but we can do that as separate issues.

> I found there are right-open ranges like {{1..<5}} for {{[1, 2, 3, 4]}}, but no left-open ranges and full-open ranges.
> I'd like to suggest adding those, e. g. {{1<..5}} for {{[2, 3, 4, 5]}} and {{1<..<5}} for {{[2, 3, 4]}}.
> For decimals it would be similar, just omitting the lower bound if it matches.
> Currently
> {{3.5..<5.7}} gives {{[3.5, 4.5, 5.5]}}
> {{3.5..<5.5}} gives {{[3.5, 4.5]}}
> So with my suggestion it would then probably be
> {{3.5<..5.5}} gives {{[4.5, 5.5]}}
> {{3.5<..<5.7}} gives {{[4.5, 5.5]}}
> {{3.5<..<5.5}} gives {{[4.5]}}
