BTW, isn't cannonicalization of endian-ness for both integers and floats a

there ever a resolution as to whether or not TypedArray [[Set]] operations need
to use a cannonical endian-ness?
Search for "byte order" at
https://www.khronos.org/registry/typedarray/specs/latest/.
I had already search for "endian" with similar results. It says that the
default for DataViews gets/sets that do not specify a byte order is big-endean. It
doesn't say anything (that I can find) about such accesses on TypedArray gets/sets.
Oh, odd -- I recall that it used to say little-endian. Typed arrays are
LE to match dominant architectures, while DataViews are BE to match
packed serialization use-cases.
Ken, did something get edited out?
