Seems quite reasonable to me. The only issue I'd take with it is the
choice of Min and Max for the names of the singletons; they're a little
too close to the functions min and max, which obviously they're both
likely to be used with. I would suggest something a little more verbose
such as Minimum and Maximum, or if you want to get silly, Infimum and
Supremum.
