    Thanks!

    I just browsed the spec again (https://github.com/mapbox/vector-tile-spec/tree/master/2.1) -- I didn't have as bad of a reaction as I did the first time I looked at it.

    I guess the idea of using (Google) protobufs for the "packaging" and then a super tight, custom, byte-encoded format for drawing commands seems... weird to me. But, honestly, it probably makes sense.

    Read the vector tile specification at https://docs.mapbox.com/vector-tiles/specification/ and https://github.com/mapbox/vector-tile-spec/tree/master/2.1 . The values you're seeing from zero to 4098 are relative to the extents of a given tile. Note the tile extents can vary between implementations.
