Codidact Fractional Byte Consensus

Over on the Code Golf StackExchange site, there is a [meta consensus](https://codegolf.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/24251/what-is-our-consensus-for-fractional-byte-functions) that answers can be scored in fractional bytes if there exists such an encoding method.

So, to quote the linked consensus question:

> For languages with fractional byte code pages, such as half-byte code pages or huffman coding, should functions be allowed to be submitted without padding to a whole number of bytes?

<sup>This came up when I went to write [this answer](https://codegolf.codidact.com/posts/288535/288546#answer-288546) and then realised "hang on there's no consensus about fracbytes here yet"</sup>
