Not here, because this mechanism stores offsets to individual bytes not large blobs. Storing the first N bytes of Pi (it makes more sense to talk about bytes than digits) requires N offsets plus either a header indicating how big each offset needed to be or variable-length delimited offsets, which necessarily likewise increases the offset size. In the absolute smallest case that's N+1 bytes.
