That's not a given, though. IEEE 754-2008 defined min and max as returning the non-NaN parameter. They have been removed in IEEE 754-2019 though.

The reference to IEEE 754 is made later on, mostly to answer the question posted. I meant regular functions in C alike languages - Math.min/max - java/javascript, fmin/fmax - C++. They do the "right" thing to propagate the NaN
