IMO, this is a redundant feature that complicates the language for no
benefit and should be deprecated.
strings already have an escape sequence for specifying code-points "\u"
and for ubyte arrays you can simply use:
immutable(ubyte)[] data2 = [0xA1 0xB2 0xC3 0xD4];
So basically this feature gains us nothing.
Maybe. Just an example of a real world code:
Arrays:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/blob/fc45de1d089a1025df60ee2eea66ba27ee0bd99c/src/core/sys/windows/dll.d#L110
vs
Hex strings:

By the way, current code isn't affected by the topic issue.
