No worries! ASN.1 is a bit weird because there’s a textual version and then a bunch of serialisations.
I think that human-readable is more important than space-efficient. At some point an engineer is going to be looking at bytes in a dump or debugger, and it sure is nice to be able to quickly know what they are.
