When the record size is not the full size, some user might not know what to do. When the record size is 1 block, the limit of 2^24.5 blocks (records) is way too low unnecessarily for the margin of 2^-60. In that case, 2^34.5 1-block records is the limit which still achieves the margin of 2^-60. I respectfully disagree. TLS deals in records not in blocks, so in the end any semantic change here will just confuse implementors, which isn't a good idea in my opinion. Over the discussion of the PRs, the preference was blocks. Quynh. Aaron
