yeah that phrase of "null bytes" reads like addressing one of the rumours

"what was the problem?" "well it wasn't null bytes" "so.. what was it then?" "have definitely eliminated null bytes from the running!"

    Aside but I have been in some weird as heck discussions about how to phrase public blog posts. A few times I've had to point out some phrasing is so cryptic that no one will even know what we're talking about, and really there's nothing wrong with being a bit clearer about what we want to express. Sometimes you'd like companies want the audience to be bewildered and confused; and I'm not totally sure where this instinct comes from.

    (Though in this case they probably don't want to share too much yet for stonk or legal reasons)
