If you just order top down in structures from pointers, 32s, 16s, arrays, 8s, it’s almost entirely done without thinking.

There is almost never a difference to the user what order things are structured. Although to be fair this does get tricky with unions of structure over structure.



True, but that's the kind of drudgery that's best farmed off to computers. I see that the comment above mentions there is a tool for this that I simply wasn't aware of.
