+  // Problem is, when storing FBT_STRING elements, it relies on that type to
+  // get the bit-width for the size field of the string, which in this case
+  // isn't present, and instead defaults to 8-bit. This means that any strings
+  // stored inside such a vector, when accessed thru the old API that returns
+  // a String reference, will appear to be truncated if the string stored is

+  // of whatever the offsets in the vector need, the bit-widths of the strings
+  // are not stored(!) <- the actual design flaw.
+  // Note that even in the fixed code, we continue to serialize the elements of
+  // FBT_VECTOR_STRING as FBT_STRING, since there may be old code out there
+  // reading new data that we want to continue to function.
+  // Thus, FBT_VECTOR_STRING, while deprecated, will always be represented the

+  // field, and instead treat these strings as FBT_KEY (null-terminated), so we

+  // This should now correctly test the full 300 bytes, using AsKey():
+  TEST_EQ_STR(vec[0].AsKey(), test_data.c_str());

+  // Code accessing existing data doesn't necessarily need to change, though
+  // you could consider using AsKey instead of AsString for a) documenting
+  // that you are accessing keys, or b) a speedup if you don't actually use
+  // the string size.
+  // For new data, or data that doesn't need to be backwards compatible,
+  // instead serialize as FBT_VECTOR (call EndVector with typed = false, then
+  // read elements with AsString), or, for maximum compactness, use
+  // FBT_VECTOR_KEY (call slb.Key above instead, read with AsKey or AsString).
