> Not sure why we are doing it like that. We only know the sizes once we've written the entry's content to the archive. The content is behind the extra field. Removing the extra field from the archive would require us move all content a few bytes towards the front of the archive. Potentially a lot of effort which will only gain us a few bytes.
