yeah, but try it with [pow~] in max, you'll see that it will filter it out
and make it output "0", in the same way I was telling you about the other
signal objects that can generate inf/nan (I gave the example of atanh~).
Currently, it seems only signal bitwise operator objects in max can
potentially create inf/nan, and they have a [bitsafe~] object to deal with
that (one which we also cloned for cyclone).

yep, so it'd make sense to avoid them
