Dear Brendon, sorry for the late response. I was just too busy with work to come back to your question. And first of all thank you to provide a rather minimal example.

The parameter ranges should indeed not harm at all. Never. What happens here
might be related to the settings, though, but it can could be triggered
elsewhere as well. The problem is, that the ticks created by the automatic
parter in combination with the manualtick you set result in a list of only a
single tick with labellevel and ticklevel being None. The rater breaks for
that. While we could create a special case in the rating and return None here,
I favor to remove those ticks completely. I decided to not change it in the
mergeticklists helper function, but filter it explicitly in the axis code. See
changeset 3051 (and 3052 due to a broken checkin without any testing – sorry).
You can also run your code on earlier unfixed versions of PyX by not setting
both, the ticklevel and the labellevel to be None. For example
graph.axis.tick.tick(0, 0, None) (note the second zero compared to your None)
works on unpatched versions of PyX.
Best
André
