You can not do the check for srto_min < 1.  The following is the text
from the spec:
   All times are given in milliseconds.  A value of 0, when modifying
   the parameters, indicates that the current value should not be
   changed.

So, it is valid for a user to pass in a value of 0.  Also, I am not sure
if it makes sense to bind the upper limit here, as well.
