    It's a consequence of unification not considering nsw.  (nsw on an

            <br>
            The backedge-taken count isn't nuw because nsw/nuw markings
            aren't flow-sensitive: there isn't any way to mark the trip
            count as nuw without marking every computation of
            `(long)n-2` as nuw.<br>
            <br>
            There's some code in ScalarEvolution::howFarToZero to try to
            refine the max backedge-taken count in some cases, but it
            isn't very general.  See <a
