This reverts commit d30cf57a7b2097b565db02ecfffbdc9c16423d0e, reversing changes made to acc155ac55baa95d1c16c0364b02244bc04d83a8. The commit d30cf57a7b2097b565db02ecfffbdc9c16423d0e provided irrelevant code complexity and decoding slowdown. But the main disadvantage of this commit is a decoder crash. So it should be reverted.
