The entire goal of this weird image format is to reduce file size, it takes ideas from CSV and basically "improves" upon them, there are no commas, and color values are a single character, everything is still seperated by newlines though, so I had to substitute any pixel values of 10 with 256.

Edit: I exported the backdrop and the encoded backdrop and the text file was 1.2 MB in size while the actual image was 371 KB

It's still a cool idea though, highly impractical but cool.

Edit 2: I just remembered what my end goal was with this entire thing, in the "lossy image compressor challenge" topic on the forums people were basing sizes off of the output of the 'csv of list' block, so I just remembered that I was trying to get it smaller than the output of that block, so I guess my goal was reached.
Cool.
