I thought about this and my answer is that a "gap" is a negative "fold", so
in the fold you have t.replace(fold=True) - t.replace(fold=False) > 0 and
in the gap - the opposite t.replace(fold=True) - t.replace(fold=False) <
0.  While admittedly, this is an a posteriori justification, it makes
perfect sense to me.
