Just curious, what is the motivation for `kotlin.ranges.coerceAtLeast` and `kotlin.ranges.coerceAtMost`, any reason these should be used in place of `maxOf` / `minOf`? It surprises me that their implementation is not just `Math.max` and `Math.min` , but maybe I’m missing something!

Ah, nevermind. Of course `Math` is on the JVM

the `.coerceAtLeast`/`.coerceAtMost`/`.coerceIn` are more expressive.
```it.coerceAtMost(MAX)
minOf(it, MAX)```
the number of bugs I've run across where the author wrote `min(MIN)`/`max(MAX)` is too high…

I see that, and I agree. My surprise at first was the difference in implementation. But of course that is explained by one being JVM-based.
