All methods may throw {@link InvalidProtocolBufferException}. In the event of invalid data,
* like an encoding error, the cause of the thrown exception will be {@code null}. However, if an
* I/O problem occurs, an exception is thrown with an {@link java.io.IOException} cause.

// so since they were originally spec'ed to only throw InvalidProtocolBufferException. So callers
