is using a wrong protocol specification.  Furthermore, there are other
implementations that also reject such messages, so using them is not

The second has 2 parts of 16 bits each. The upper 16 bits are the message
size in bytes, starting at the header (i.e. it has a minimum value of 8).
The lower is the request/event opcode. The size must be a multiple of 4.
Messages must be sent using the fewest bytes possible, so padding after
the end of a message is not permitted.
