… and adding something closer to a proposal to my observation:

intString is an int[unlimited?  64?] in decimal.
(Note that the below are all strings on the JSON side, too; nothing is special requiring calling out the use of Strings, but it should be said that they are decimal(*)).

uintB64u is an uint_unlimited in (msb-first bytes and then) b64u (Section 5/no padding).

bytesB64 is a byte string in b64c (Section 4/padding).
bytesB64u is a byte string in b64u.

Note that there is no “default” representation of byte string in JSON, so this always needs a representation (possibly the JDDF defines a default, which would be b64u).

Grüße, Carsten

(*) should have a position on leading zeros…
