Is there a > reason for the IETF to bless an encoding scheme that is little-endian? BARE use-cases section includes "A structured data format for storing data in persistent storage" [1] (along more examples that invove network communication). The little endian is chosen because it is widely used in processor architectures. Is that a sufficient reason? If there is no chance that a protocol based on the little endian would be published in Standards Track, please, let me know. > Section 1 starts, "The purpose of the BARE message encoding, like > hundreds of others, is to encode application messages."

In general, it is better because of the BARE's goals: - Concise messages - A well-defined message schema - Broad compatibility with programming environments - Simplicity of implementation and how these goals are met. I did some comparison with similar encodings in the presentation for IETF 114 [2]. My summary is that BARE: - has extensive support for primitive and aggregated data types, - these data types area clearly distinguished, - BARE is well defined, - BARE is simple.
