If you are doing the `expand_` and `adjust_` at each insertion or removal from sets, I'd encourage you to think about encapsulating intervals as a performance heuristic into the set abstraction, and always keep them updated, or have an API call that adjusts them if you are batching the interval adjustments to amortize the cost of these adjustments over several insertions and deletions.
