Summary

Noticed some instances of slice() being called with the length property of the array that was being sliced instead of the more concise syntax using negative indices.

Test Plan

N/A, but checked to make sure slice() functions the same with the negative index and when called with its positive counterpart (...length - 1, for example).

Event Timeline

This makes sense to me, I tend to use negative indices liberally when I'm writing python or whatever.

Kind of a style thing so tagging @ashoat to see if he cares/has any thoughts

Makes sense. Also wanted to note that slice(0, -1) is what's used in the rest of the codebase, i.e., this change updates the only usages of slice() that don't already use the negative index syntax.

Okay cool, then it's probably good to land
