if you squint a bit, `x or y` returns the one that's greater, i.e. `0 or 1 == 1`; and `x and y` returns the one that's smaller, i.e. `0 and 1 == 0`. so min/max

if you squint a bit, `x or y` returns the one that's greater, i.e. `0 or 1 == 1`; and `x and y` returns the one that's smaller, i.e. `0 and 1 == 0`. so min/max kind of are a generalization of and/or
