How would the nullable representation of the maximum 64 bit unsigned integer be encoded? Is it transmitted in 65 significant bits? Is this value expected to be sent?

Yes, it will use 65 significant bits and a conformant decoder must be able to handle it. Whether it is expected to be sent or not depends on the use case.
