The goal of this milestone is to make it easier to compare and diff the MBIN and EXML files by fixing issues and addressing discrepancies that lead to inaccurate reproduction.

libMBIN currently produces lossy data, meaning that when a vanilla MBIN is converted to EXML and then back to MBIN it does not exactly match the vanilla MBIN. This is partly because…
