2 years ago thegarii adapts all of the format of Arweave blocks,
for parsing Arweave blocks from json, see https://github.com/ChainSafe/thegarii/blob/8a289c066e9515dd09a7aa32f16f2eec12ee20c3/src/types.rs#L8
for convert inner block types into protobuf, see https://github.com/ChainSafe/thegarii/blob/8a289c066e9515dd09a7aa32f16f2eec12ee20c3/src/pb.rs#L43

I would like to review the block format, where it was taken from and the net effect on the end user.
If we are using the types as defined by the HTTP API, it seems the format is different based on the block height? What do we represent in the block model, the latest version, the common base? All?
