>Is it? Does that range start at 0 or 1 or some other value? Does it include 15 or exclude it?
This is like reading a novel that says, "And then Jill began to count." and then asking the same questions. A non-technical reader does not need to know these details. The smaller details are not required to grok the bigger picture.
>Doesn't it? Is that UTC or local time? Or maybe it's CPU ticks? Or maybe the time since the start of the program?
When is the last time someone asked you, "Know what time it is?" and you responded with, "Is that UTC or local time?" Same thing, these details do not and should not matter to a non-technical reader.
Keep in mind, the audience is for non software engineers from people who barely know how to code, to people who do not know how to code but still need to be able to read at least some code.
