The 95% use case here is handling UTF8-encoded Unicode text. Secure by default should be the norm, not a magic flag, not buried in a readme. If you need to encode an arbitrarily large integer into a stream of bytes, then use a library specifically designed for encoding arbitrarily large integers into streams of bytes. Yes, we're making up problems.
