We could change the name, I suppose, but that seems awkward. I'm
hesitant to remove them because the alternative is significantly more
verbose:
numrange(1.0, 1.0, '[]');
But I don't have any particularly good ideas to save them, either.
Regarding the zero-argument (empty) constructors, I'd be fine removing
them. They don't seem to cause problems, but the utility is also very
minor.
