> Currently, protocols are built to be pretty robust to 'schema' changes. This
> is done by sending metadata about when a struct or a field will start/end,
> the number of fields to expect and the types of each field, etc. However,
> there are cases when the recipient knows all of this, even before it receives
> this metadata. In these cases, sending the metadata unnecessarily eats up
> bandwidth. The TupleProtocol rectifies this by sending and receiving only the
> value of each field in a specified order. The only metadata passed is about
> variable information such as the size of a container or which optional fields
> are set.
