Issue #15745 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze).


Maybe always showing `nil` is clearer, since anyway the current implementation of begin/end-less Ranges leaks that detail? (e.g., through `#begin` and `#end`)
Somewhat related about leaking Range's implementation details: #15804.

The following commit introduces beginless range.
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/95f7992b89efd35de6b28ac095c4d3477019c583

```
% ruby -v
ruby 2.7.0dev (2019-04-03 trunk 67423) [x86_64-darwin17]
```

There is no symmetry with endless range when using `Range#inspect` method.

```
(1..).inspect # => "1.."
(..5).inspect # => "nil..5"
```

How about unifying whether it represents `nil`?
