Or something like "end of data" or "end of values", yes.

Circular in the same sense as circular lists.  I'll point this out.

No, arbitrary real numbers are allowed.

That's not the RnRS convention; cf. "abelian group".

No, it doesn't.

Increasing order, yes.  I see no reason to forbid duplicates particularly.

I'll rewrite to avoid that.

Yes.

I suppose that's feasible, yes.

Either works for me.

Excellent idea.
