Review Comment:
   At the SPI layer a non-empty user-supplied `defaultNullValue` for VARIANT is 
accepted here (decoded as a valid PVAR envelope), while the design restricts 
VARIANT to the empty-byte null sentinel. That constraint lands in the 
segment-local validation PR (3/8), so this is fine as-is — just flagging that 
SPI is intentionally permissive.
