Go up one level in this thread

The purpose of the protocol is NOT to be as concise as possible; it is to be
simple & easy to parse.  500 extra bytes of overhead per move simply do NOT
matter speed wise, and they simplify the job of both the engine and the GUI.

People that complain about them simply don't understand Amdahl's Law.
