I don't know either if any exists, but here is just my common sense. When we have the offsets being aligned it's much easier to decypher and, depending on implementation, may be more robust (in case there is some bit arithmetics is being used, I hope not though). That's why the 0x40 or any aligned offset seems natural choice to me. > > P.S.
