I'm against hyper-optimising but I favor a balanced protocol. If some users report that the current design is considerably worse than the previous one, I think we should seek a balance point. And FWIW, using a bit to indicate static vs dynamic will save less space than if we'd use ranges but it will remain simpler to implement. > Thus, I suspect that it?s going to be difficult to get consensus on > such a proposal ? but (as always) I?m happy to be proven wrong by the WG. I'm currently trying to find the best way to limit the amount of text changes (or addition). If anyone already has something or is willing to help, inputs are welcome! Regards, Willy
