Otherwise, when the invalid value is written out to storage via mlreco3d on the other end of the pipeline, we'll run into a OverflowError: Python int too large to convert to C long because of a mismatch between numpy.int64 and unsigned long long.
This choice exposes us to a possible niche bug where we might overflow past this invalid value if there are more than approximately 9e18 instances, but that's a risk worth taking :)
