Focused tests against the September 4, 2026 master snapshot show that multi-byte Zcash address fields are decoded to the wrong value, such as 256 becoming 1, and unnecessarily long encodings of small values are accepted. Use the specified byte order and require the shortest valid encoding; the long-value failures were reproduced in isolated source tests, and ordinary supported receiver fields are below the affected multi-byte range. cc @kdenhartog
