It's a very clear and detailed description. But if you think that the original description it's fine, you should not change it. And you don't worry, in my translation the text says clearly that the length of any field must be, at least, equal to length of its longest value, and it suggest to take an a bit major value. Anyway, I think that this new description is so clear, easy to understand, and detailed that now my great-grandmother can understand it.
