Encoding error for single item Enums
See original GitHub issueSubstrate encodes a single item Enum with an added leading zero while Polkadot encodes a single item Enum with an unnecessary (?) extra 255, breaking interchangeability between both ends.
hex::encode(some_single_item_enum.encode()); // Gives, for example, 001234
someSingleItemEnum.toHex(); // Gives 0x00ff1234

The Address encoding is very explicit and has a special serialization, enum-like - the first byte indicates if it is an AccountId or AccountIndex. AccountId by itself will be without, since there is not “one or the other”.
TL;DR Address !== AccountId, these are distinct types
Ok, has a single-entry test added here - https://github.com/polkadot-js/api/pull/1670 - all encoded exactly as expected.
