Yes. The reason is that mesh2 is converted into the INTERNAL representation
of a mesh. The internal representation is a pile of arrays. The difference
is that a mesh is first put into a set of hash tables while the sizes of the
arrays are computed, then the contents of the hash tables are transferred to
the arrays. Mesh2 is able to skip this intermediate step by adding explicit
counts to the syntax. Mesh2 is really only intended for a machine-generated
mesh anyway.
