Yes. BinData is optimised for the common case where the parsing succeeds.
If your use case expects the parsing to fail, use read_until instead of initial_length.

My "use case" was a typo. I do expect the parsing to succeed for normal situations though.
While writing my code, I accidentally had a uint32 length vs expected uint16 length via a copy-paste error. When I ran the script, it was taking suspiciously long and I saw my memory disappearing, then it began swapping out before I managed to ctrl-c it. It was the ux & behavior of the failure that concerned me more than the failure itself, hence why I though of reporting it.

There are existing uses relying on arrays being fully allocated before being read. Thanks for the report, but I can not make this change while maintaining backward compatibility.
