Answer 1

Trying out your code tells me, that the compiler has a problem with the me[d].max < other[d].max part. So the problem with the dot was bogus. Instead the compiler has a problem with the comparison operator. Just reverting the comparison made the compiler error magically disappear:

if (me[i].min > other[i].min || other[i].max > me[i].max) {
       return false;
}
