(This has approximately the same complexity as an indefinite length string with three components.) [JLS] No this has much more complexity that the CBOR indefinite string. It has the complexity of the ASN.1 indefinite string since each of the first two elements could them selves be composite items of multiple components. (In diagnostic notation, you don’t write the “6.” — that is for CDDL “#6.”.... Apologies for this discontinuity.) [JLS] And should really know this. I guess I need to start writing CDDL more often.
