That's primary storage, right?  What about indexes?
Doubles the index size.

One problem about uint64_t... now all languages can support it.

I believe that's:

"not all languages can support it."

Java, for instance, does not have unsigned types, meaning uint64_t maps
to BigInteger, which is not directly compatible with other integral
types. (good job Java)

Good job Java... Do you know what the common type of INTEGER and UNSIGNED INTEGER in MySQL is?

It also means that an INT UNSIGNED has to become a 64-bit int in Java to
hold all of the values. Then again, Java translates all of your strings
into ucs2 internally, so I'm thinking that the extra byte or two of int
storage is probably not as much of an issue. :)

Because Java was designed for more people than Americans and Western Europeans?
