In my trying to use pd.Intervals/pd.IntervalIndex (which are terrific additions), I've become somewhat perplexed with the default of closed='right'. Python slicing is inclusive-exclusive, so I thought pd.Intervals might have the same default. I imagine there is a reason for this that I haven't quite understood.
I tried searching through the issue tracker for more information but wasn't really successful ... although I imagine it's pretty likely that I've missed the relevant issue.

Thanks for the suggestion but changing the default would probably induce a lot of churn for not much gain so closing
