Description
Commit https://github.com/mlabs-haskell/majority-multisign/commit/215710cb829a06b14270fe0cd9ab091033ffc129 replaced three data declarations with newtype to shave 57 bytes off the validator script size. We should test what happens if the three wrapper types are completely stripped away. If this is a major win (e.g. > 100 bytes) we might want to eliminate them.

Research direction
Start with commit 215710cb829a06b14270fe0cd9ab091033ffc129 and inspect the three declarations changed from data to newtype. Find how the validator script size is measured, test removing those wrappers, and compare the resulting byte size with the current version. Done means the size impact is recorded clearly enough to decide whether elimination is worthwhile.
