Thank you for clarifying, guys!
Now I see that requirement of non-negative remainder is quite practical
and well-binded with mathematical rings of natural numbers.
Sadly (as I understand from similar discussions before) Lua
implementation is heavily linked with ANSI C and Roberto generally not
willing to introduce changes in logic that is different from ANSI C.
Although I consider "%" and math.mod() behavior change worth it.
