Eh, "increment" there is related to the *verb* increment, as in
"increase by some amount".  It's not related to the noun increment
("the smallest/most significant units of increase"), which is the
concept we're trying to invoke here. I like "increment" less now.

I like "step" quite a bit - it's also used by HTML in the <input
type=number step> attribute to mean exactly what we want here.
