I'm trying to understand Math.php to fix a

understand why math_inputhash and math_outputhash are being
stored as binary values. It appears that Math.php is simply
coverting the original hex values to a binary upon store to
the database, and then doing the inverse when it is read back
out. What's the reason for this as opposed to simply storing
the hex values directly in the database?
There's no good reason for it; perhaps premature optimization on Taw's
part back in the day. :)
We could change it to hex, but that may require changing the existing
entries or such.
Well, I haven't looked at it, but just read these messages...
If I get it right, there's no difference between storing something as hex
or storing it as binary, because hex is just a shorter form of
presentation for binary values, right?
So, was "hex" in the original message referring to strings to save some
numeric values?
*confused*
