No, I misread the concern so the PEBKAC is on me.

>That said, I'm struggling to think that this actually matters, due to the fact that the TransItem is no longer presented the same as the SignedCertificateTimestamp - that is, as discussed in https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis-41.html#name-presenting-scts-inclusions-<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis-41.html*name-presenting-scts-inclusions-__;Iw!!GjvTz_vk!FdBQc1XlZqkUsWHiXq4_ISAgESX6182gBKlZddj8AIyx11QBuw1PKfBCSGZB$> , these are conveyed through separate TLS extension (transparency_info), as well as new X.509 and OCSP extensions ( https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis-41.html#name-transparency-information-x5<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-trans-rfc6962-bis-41.html*name-transparency-information-x5__;Iw!!GjvTz_vk!FdBQc1XlZqkUsWHiXq4_ISAgESX6182gBKlZddj8AIyx11QBuw1PKZ9wEdMH$> ), so this overlap in "how to interpret first byte" is no longer relevant.

That makes sense to me.  Perhaps the original poster is fetching SCT’s some other way and there’s no context to distinguish them?
