I would imagine that it is some sort of image processing use-case, where
sometimes you want the data to reflect at the boundaries, or be constant,
or have some other value used for access outside the domain.  So, for
reflect, I would guess that he would have wanted 0.0 for the first two and
1000 for the last one.
