My arithmetic may be letting me down, but in s.3.2, when there are 'typecnt' entries in a list of transition types, then I would expect the index to be [0, 'typecnt'-1) or [1, 'typecnt') but not [0, 'typecnt') as the I-D says, unless zero has a special meaning but then it is not really an index. Ditto for (desig)idx and charcnt except that this list is NUL terminated, but then I would not expect it to be valid to index the NUL. I infer, and would rather be told explicitly, that "The total number of octets is specified by the 'charcnt' field .. excludes the NUL that terminates the list. In s.1, "the source the time zone data metadata, identifiers, ..." would appear to be light of an 'of'.
