Sharing CustomMessages Clarification

Hi I was looking at the CustomMessages Script in the HololensTookit > Sharing > Tests example and was wondering what this commented code meant:
/// <summary>
/// Message enum containing our information bytes to share.
/// The first message type has to start with UserMessageIDStart
/// so as not to conflict with HoloToolkit internal messages.
/// </summary>
public enum TestMessageID : byte
{
HeadTransform = MessageID.UserMessageIDStart,
Max
}
Does this mean that the first message sent has to be a byte? Do all messages have to be sent in bytes?

My guess is that the enums are defined by byte only values.
The messages are definitely sent as bytes. I was messing around with it to show the raycast of the remote players with a line renderer, and hand positions of remote player to put hand models.
At the bottom of the custommessages.cs are 2 helper functions for appending vector3's and quaternions onto your message as bytes. And functions for reading out the bytes from a received message into Vector3's and quaternions that you call from the remoteheadmanager script that you then apply to your various objects' transforms.
