I decided to look into why this is a problem. It's that foreach, which is used to go through the values of a -Range function in the stalemated subroutine, exits when it gets a false value. This is because the PHP next function, which the next command uses to get the next value in an array, returns false if the array has no more elements. So, I have a conditional checking whether this value is false, and if it is false, it decrements the scope, which breaks out of the loop. To allow array elements with false values, I need another way to tell whether there are any more elements in the array.
