PWM is a matter of personal taste. Some designs allow you to "overdrive" the PWM, so that the pulse wave completely disappears as you modulate below 0% and above 100%. Other designs clip the PWM so that the pulse wave never completely disappears.

This design in its current incarnation does not clip the PWM signal and allows for overdrive.

Add a zener network or other clipping strategy so that the pulse width is clamped between around 2% and 98%.

The builder can then choose to either install or leave off the clipping network, according to their taste.
