Tomohito Nakayama commented on DERBY-2603:
------------------------------------------

I think the word "binary" in this statement is mistaken of  "boolean".
// Both types concern to concept of 0 and 1.
// Then I think person who is familiar with computer may misuse them.

As you wrote, we can recognize "binary" stands for number of argument here.
But I think it is not good usage of word here and could not believe it is 
intense of the original writer.

At first, I misunderstood that the two values are compared as binary value !

Again, I can't believe that writer use the word "binary" for that meaning , the 
number of arguments....
