which suggested you were talking about serializations. I apologize if I misunderstood.
- eadmund 1y agoNo worries! ASN.1 is a bit weird because there’s a textual version and then a bunch of serialisations. I think that human-readable is more important than space-efficient. At some point an engineer is going to be looking at bytes in a dump or debugger, and it sure is nice to be able to quickly know what they are.
