So if `RHS`'s range is `[2, 5)` and `Pred` is `ULT`, then `Satisfied_CR` is `[0, 2)`.  `InversedSatisfied_CR` will then be `[2, 0)` (i.e. all integers unsigned greater than or equal to `2`) and so you'll fold the equality to false if `LHS_CR` is `[3,4)`, even though in that case there is a value of `LHS` = `3` for which the equality is `true`.

I don't understand your example. If we have:

  x <u 2

then Satisfied_CR is indeed [0, 2), and the inverse (x >=u 2) should indeed be [2, 0). But if LHS_CR is [3, 4), then the original predicate is false, because 3 is not less than 2.
