ben_vulpes: galls me on some level to think about a hash, which i concieve of as an integer, as a byte array or a set of chars.
ben_vulpes: without having to cast said to a NUMERIC
ben_vulpes: but it lends the benefit of "oh, derps asked about 1b1tc01n34t3r"
ben_vulpes: CHAR[] didn't make much sense to me, because a hash isn't instrinsically a set of characters, except insofar as a byte array can be seen as a set of characters, but which characters...

ben_vulpes: yeah, yeah.
ben_vulpes: the tree, though...
ben_vulpes: well the mr is a hash of hashes, no? doesn't have much structure to it.
ben_vulpes: what, "hash" as its own data type?
ben_vulpes: tooootally tangentially and not at all related to anything else, would there be any reason to store merkleroots, block/txn hashes as integers vs byte arrays?
ben_vulpes: asciilifeform: ^^
ben_vulpes: psql will even shit csvs
ben_vulpes: so well
