- dllthomas 13y agoTrue! But: 1) it's still less likely - most of the data is almost certainly characters of content, not sizes; 2) it's unlikely to be robust against flipped bits in pointers in the rope structures (even if implemented as indexes); and 3) there is no reason to expect it to be limited to one byte (if an addition or deletion happens, "more than one byte" is far more likely than "one byte").
