Overrun may happen when 'max_index()' returns error, '-1', which becomes
'UINT16_MAX' as function returns 'uint16_t'.

And 'max_index()' returns error only if "members_count <= 0", but as far
as I can see 'members_count' can't be "<= 0" anyway.

What do you think to remove check in the 'max_index()', or add a check
in 'selection_logic()' for 'members_count == 0', but not sure what to do
'max_index()'in this case, so updating 'max_index()' is simpler.
