Yes. Oh, you also want to know what it is? I was somehow fixed on using a limited number of bits (probably because of no_merges etc. and the mentioning of tri-state), therefore using a bounded range. Also, I was keen of having "8" be infinity. (My fingers are trained to enter "`8" to get "\infty".) But I've come to realise I'm the only one. > > What does --no-merges --merges do?

Am I allowed to do unsigned max_parent = -1; to get "infinity for practical purposes" on all compilers?
