> I'd like to make it a requirement that the algorithm produce an error if the encoder sent a value that is not possible if it were following the rules in the spec. Example per the discussion in #2112:

> MaxEntries = 10
> TotalNumberOfInserts (decoder_base) = 2
> WireLR = 18
> 
> This algorithm returns 17. What is the guidance to convert this to an error? Is it:

>   Error

I'm with you.  See issue 2249.
