Does anyone else find it odd that both

Base-122 was created with the web in mind.

And

As §3 shows, base-122 is not recommended to be used on gzip compressed pages, which is the majority of served web pages.

Occur in just a few lines from each other? I get there's more use cases like email and such but if you're going to create something for the web but it can't be used on the majority of web pages that seems like a fairly large oversight/caveat.

I agree. Including:

> Base-122 encoded strings contain characters which did not seem to play well with copy-pasting.

A very important part of web development is being able to manipulate text documents. It seems that using UTF-8 in more places can reveal cracks in implementations for browsers/DE's/editors/terminals/etc.
