In chapter 18, when defining the DispatchTimerSubscription you use
self.requested -= .max(1)
self.timer -= .max(1)
and I wonder what .max(1) actually does and why it’s needed.
I imaging it creates a new Demand object, initialized by 1 and then subtracts that one from either requested or timer.
I wonder why one couldn’t simply write
self.requested -= 1
self.timer -= 1
