No. The way it is written is correct. If we are not at the last slot,
then we take the pivot as the max for the next level of the tree. If we
are at the last slot, then the max is already the correct value.

Why is it best to change it?

You can overflow the pivots array here because offset can actually be
larger than the array. I am surprised this passes the maple tree test
program, but with a full node and walking to the end, it will address
the pivots array out of bounds.
I wrote it the way I did to minimize the instructions in the loop by
avoiding the overflow check.
