...it'd probably be good if there was a "read-only" order book feed too that didn't even include order IDs, at least not 64-character order IDs. No commitments, no match_proof notification. Bare minimum.
The vast majority of bandwidth for order book feeds will be eaten by order IDs, commitments, match_proof notification, and other information not necessary to simply watch the order book. As @chappjc pointed out in regards to client-side validation
a client without an order in a given epoch is unlikely to care [about validating]
Lite subscribers could be differentiated from validating subscribers, and the order book router can send appropriate messaging for each.
