Review comment:
       From the Go docs on JSON marshalling: 
https://pkg.go.dev/encoding/json#Marshal
   
   > Array and slice values encode as JSON arrays, except that []byte encodes 
as a base64-encoded string, and a nil slice encodes as the null JSON value.
   
   The standard marshalling of byte slices to JSON in go will marshal it to a 
base64-encoded string.
