PS3, Line 36: 		from u
there's at least 5 instances of "... = TLV() tag_size=1, len_size=1" in the code.  That's copy+paste and it will only grow more.

WE could simply inherit our own class from TLV() and set the right kind of defaults.

btw: tag_size=1 is default in uttlv, so we can skip it

Finally, even while uttlv might be much nicer: I doubt it really implements the BER-TLV semantics that are required in many parts of smart cards.  For example, the length is not a fixed one byte length, but it's a variable-length length field.

So sooner or later we will have to (write if we cannot find) and switch to a proper implementation that really implements what we require.  WE shoud study tools like cyberflex-shell, mitshell, pycrate, etc. and see if there really isn't anything that implements what's needed.
