Description
From manual page: https://php.net/class.dateinterval
Please add the value ranges to the properties where applicable.
In my case the reading of the documentation caused a bug as I was comparing the dates "2023-12-31" with "2024-01-31" which caused the d-Property to become 0 instead of 31 (what I expected). When investigating the issue I only realized that I should use the days-Property instead.
Adding the value ranges helps to realize that on the first sight.

Research direction
Open the DateInterval class page at https://php.net/class.dateinterval and review its property descriptions and documented ranges. Add value ranges where they apply, including clarifying the distinction between the d and days properties. Done means the relevant properties explain their ranges clearly enough to avoid the reported comparison mistake.
