These constants are small and can fit even in
u8
, but semantically they have typeusize
because they denote sizes and are almost always used inusize
context. The change of their type tou32
during the integer audit led only to the large amount ofas usize
noise (see the second commit, which removes this noise).This is a minor [breaking-change] to an unstable interface.
