Yup, I think I understand that, and agree you need to at least tend to one. I'm just wondering why you initially use the loser definition of theta (where it doesn't need to tend to one, and can instead be just 0 )

When defining safe interruptibility, we let theta tend to 1. We probably didn't specify that earlier, when we were just introducing the concept?
