The paragraph you are replying to is referring to Paul’s suggestion of 
allowing negative scalars in the constructors, a limitation that can be 
lifted in the future without introducing a breaking change.

------

Besides being confident in the basic design of the class, which is much 
older than the RFC - I first discussed the idea with Derick on PHPDay 
this year, and had a design lying around for even longer - I also 
consider the benefit of having a better “Io\Poll” API to be worth trying 
to hit a deadline.
