This triggers the real computation of the result. The algorithm then splits `t2` into `t21 = int:-2..-1` and `t22 = int:0..3`. The `Xor` of these with `t1` are `r1 = int:-4..-1` and `r2 = int:0..3`. As both have `_hi - _lo <= SMALL_TYPEINT_THRESHOLD == 3`, their `_widen`s are normalized to `0`. As a result, their `meet` also has `_widen == 0`. This value is smaller than that from the previous step, which was `3`, which leads to the failure.

As a result, my proposed solution is to ignore the `_widen` value of the subranges, and pass the expected `_widen` value when composing the final result.
