Revert use singular for -1 (commits 9ee7d533da and 5da9868ed9

Turns out you can specify negative values using plurals:

https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/9735/is-1-followed-by-a-singular-or-plural-noun

so the previous code was correct enough, and consistent with other usage
in our code. Also add comment in the two places where this could be
confused.
