Or pad all entries with 0s to an arbitrarily long size. The 0s can be assumed, and not actually stored. Therefore arbitrarily long entries need not be shortened.

You can but you have to tie it to actual devices and a point in time, not simply a specific OS version. Essentially, all devices that existed before the change must still support the old set of characters and devices produced (or sold or ac
