The encoding could +// be more dense: a full 64-bit value needs an extra byte just to hold bit 63. +// Instead, the msb of the previous byte could be used to hold bit 63 since we +// know there can't be more than 64 bits. This is a trivial improvement and +// would reduce the maximum encoding length to 9 bytes.
