Review Comment:
   Thank you for the thorough response @leerho. I agree with you that it's 
impossible to always difficult to predict the future, I just wanted to better 
understand the intentions of the datasketches maintainers when it comes to 
serialization compatibility. I think you've answered all my the questions 
though.
   
   For this change I think there are two parts to highlight (1) is the 
compatibility across languages and (2) is compatibility across datasketches 
versions. I've split your suggestions above across bullets pertaining to those 
points and tried to word it accordingly.
