Review comment:
       So the Python comment of "last candidate" also generates them backwards. 
Got it. Explicitly calling out behavior in terms of event time is much clearer. 
   
   The current implementation of getting the first element in the slice matches 
the comment and intent from what I understood at the time, but fixing it isn't 
a big issue (apart from updating the tests to reflect that difference)
