The reason I did not consider it was to make the review process easier by
performing only
the mechanical change being part of fixing 8.1 rule. However I'm fully ok to
drop the cast.
Changing the format specifier to PRIu32 for length would require using PRIu8
for table->revision
to be coherent.

Why is it so given that both size and count are of type u32?
