This seems to make an assumption about zero being invalid, but is that true? If so, let's point to relevant documentation. If not, let's drop this method.

This originates from my naive assumption that triviality applies here. Why would one have a fully non-null initialized byte array that takes more bytes than just a normal MAC address?
IMHO, this is a common use-case that will simplify things. In most cases, people want to work with Ethernet Mac addresses and they need a convenient conversion for that.
What do you think?

How about an infallible conversion? Something like
fn truncate_to_ethernet_mac_addr(self) -> [u8; 6]
. That way, we avoid making any assumptions about the meaning (or lack thereof) of the last 26 bytes, and the name makes it clear that this is truncating the input.There was a problem hiding this comment.
