Hi Carsten,

>>> Examples from the HTTP ecosystem (GNAP, HTTPAPI, HTTPBIS) didn’t have any “===“ decoration, though.  (Why the heck was this left open as a choice for the author?  I like “%%%” decoration instead, should I use that as a personal fashion statement?)

Not always.  The draft specifically allows for manual/smart folding to give better results than simple automation:  See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8792#section-9.3 for more examples.
