Some dictionary items are OW/OB, 'US or SS' etc. See if can resolve which was actually used and read with appropriate byte swapping if required.

e.g. PixelData is OB for encapsulated formats -- PS 3.5-2008 A.4

Set difficulty. Chose 'Hard' based on fact that determining whether is OB or OW may require knowing values of other data elements, which can be tricky. Perhaps it can be done like for private tags, where Private Creator was checked when the data element was added to the dataset (setitem in that case).
