ASN.1 is not used because of just bitpacking. There are other benefits to ASN.1 and it's probably one of the least problematic parts there. People who have thought they can do better have made things like PGP. It's one of the worst cryptographic solutions out there. You're free to try as well though. | ||

People who though they can do better did JWT, that is not complicated at all and has no bugs as well. Also solves 20% of what asn.1 is used for. | ||
