...And yes, LEN was also optional (did not need to be included) in all the QB builds.
Now if we make RA files with variable string lengths and we want to view the contents of the file in something like Notepad, well, it's an awful mess. Nothing lines up, as it would in a fixed string file. That's the only downside I found in the past.
