Nice work! Got some suggestions for writing test lets go!

[MattToast]

A couple more small nits in addition to Amanda's comments. Overall, looking really good!

[MattToast]

A couple of last minute nits about some test ids, I agree with the need for an additional test to test unpack directly, but nothing there is worth holding approval up over!

LGTM!! Thanks for all the hard work on this one!!
