Yeahbut it's an ID to a member of a container.  I read it as "take the 
ID of the first thing in the container, then use an ID one lower than 
that."  It seems random at best, destructive at worst.

The code on the far side starts iterating from that ID and adding things 
up.  If you go one lower for where you begin iterating, then it seems it 
would just add even more things together, which would have the opposite 
of the intended effect.

I'm only using my C++ for Dummies intuition, not any actual knowledge or 
skill, but that's what it looks like to me.
