> The only gain in compactness is literally in Arc where you can potentially save 2 characters. Indeed, and saving these two characters is pretty silly knowing that (including these two characters), the 7 arguments of an arc take at least 14 characters, so best case scenario you compress from 14 to 12 characters (14.3% compression), which is a lower compression factor than typical lossless compression you'd achieve by simply zipping the file for transmission. But oh well... backward compatibility. At least this doesn't impact behavior, it "just" makes it harder to write parsers. -- GitHub Notification of comment by dalboris Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/svgwg/issues/752#issuecomment-561602140 using your GitHub account
