Basically, I agree with his ideas too.
I suggest introducing the compressed format when the arguments of the same type
continue.
For example:
printb("%d%d%d%d", long1, long2, long3, long4);
This expression will be compressed as below;
printb("%d4", long1, long2, long3, long4);
This compressed format is simple and reduces transporting data size.
By the way, I also hope the name of the interface is more neutral as printf ;-).
