Agreed.  If you tell someone   a .. b  means a non-inclusive range
from a to b, then ask them to guess what    blarf a .. blarf b  means,
I would be very surprised if many guessed "inclusive range from blarf
a  to blarf b".

... Unless they guess that the fact you were asking something which
should be so obvious meant that it was probably a trick question, in
which case they'd answer inclusive, that being the non-obvious answer.
