Re:Always use [closed, open) intervals

But I don't think these are equivalent.
When looking for a booking you are using an interval.
When looking at room capacity you are looking for a minimum. This is not the same as an interval. If you are looking for "sleeps 6" that is your bare minimum acceptance in capacity. You are not interested for the [1, 6] interval. Nothing below 6 makes sense.
Even if you wanted to force the interval use here, I'd say you'd be looking for the [6, INF) interval. That is, rooms with capacity of at least 6 (but having more capacity is fine).
