Yes, if min==max, and the value pointed to by this index is empty,
we should return it.

Yes, it's a problem with the tree itself.

Here is also the same problem with the tree itself as above.
Maybe I didn't understand what you mean. I think the case of
min==max should still be considered in mas_empty_area_rev(),
because mas_empty_area_rev() is a separate interface.

Yes, both methods will work.
