For Element Data Sizes encoded at octet lengths from one to eight,
[@tableVintRangePerLength] depicts the range of possible values
that can be encoded as an Element Data Size. An Element Data Size with an
octet length of 8 is able to express a size of 2^56^-2 or
octet length of 8 is able to express a size of 2^(56)^-2 or
72,057,594,037,927,934 octets (or about 72 petabytes). The maximum possible
value that can be stored as Element Data Size is referred to as VINTMAX.
