In protocol version 2.0.0, maximumClutchSize, maximumBroodSize, and maximumNumberFledged, in contrast to their minimum<x> and observed<x> counterparts, are of class numeric, because Inf are valid values (to indicate cases where, e.g., the final clutch size is not observed) However, that is not at all practical, and this would be better captured by NA.
A more practical solution would be to treat the maximum_<x> as integers.
