Then I misunderstand. Here's orthodox code, which RUNs in any version:

 {greater_than}0>

When, pursuing your strategy, I reduce it to

then I get "Mismatched [logical or numeric] operands" in every version I
try: v3.57, v3.58-B, v4.017, v4.12. Even if I suppress the error by
turning off all error trapping, it bombs.

But if I restore ">0" or "<1" after , the routine runs as designed.

Over to you...
