Non-functional change to make consuming claims more concise:
When we limit the consumption of claims to the remaining claims
of the domain, we can make the code more concise by limiting the
adjustment to it instead of carrying a special case for it.

"Much more concise" in the title suggests a significant (i.e. functional)
change, contrary to what is being said here.

This wording in turn suggests a functional change when, afaict, there is
none.

If there was a previous version, why does this submission not have a
version number > 1? Having looked back - what was wrong with the
original title?

Nit: Why once a field name and once a verbal description?

Again: Comment style.

I may have expressed before that any use of min_t() is worrying to a certain
degree, due to the involved casting. The use here may well be appropriate,
but I'd expect a word to be said towards this in the description then. After
all alternatives exist (and I even pointed out one during v3 review) ...
