Research direction

Locate the min and max aggregate implementations and compare them with the avg, median, and mode operators described in the issue. Confirm how multiplicities of -1 are handled, then update min and max so removed stream entries affect the result and verify that existing aggregate behavior remains correct.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Min and Max functions appear to find the min/max value of all values that ever existed in the stream, regardless of multiplicity. To me, this doesn't seem like the desired behavior. On the other hand, the other aggregate statistical operators (avg, median and mode) all appear to account for stream entries being 'removed' by reversing the aggregation for multiplicities of -1.
