gollark: It's very efficient.
gollark: Each quadword just has an extra 15.3 bits containing the order of the bytes.
gollark: I don't see why endianness is a problem. GTech™ solved this ages ago with our per-value permutation system.
gollark: This probably does imply regular determinism.
gollark: Another is superdeterminism, which is sort of kind of where the particles "know" what properties of them will be measured in advance.
