it's not really possible to stay human readable and get the compression levels and random access properties I was going for. But it is as human tooling friendly as possible given the constraints.
I find it obvious that your first attempt failed. Try again, you have not even remotely failed enough if you are making the argument that this is kinda readable. Yes, ascii words are easy to pick out, you didn’t do that, you did the part that makes it all harder.
Sample output:
'fdiscovered,aextreme,7danger,6+1A+16;6level_range,b:QThe Heap ,d'th
Human unreadable, ascii output. Line up and get yours today!
