I think we could do min((u32)a, (u32)b), but it is just unwrapped min_t
if I understand David's comment.

I will take your advise and upgrade the type to u32 as a revision.

Yes, I too did not understand David's comment. I tried to dig dipper into max_t but
it gets very complex. Can you please elaborate how you determined the promotion
to signed int?
