Marios Trivyzas commented on FLINK-25187:
-----------------------------------------
Since *BINARY* is not encouraged but users should opt for *BYTES* (same as
*CHAR* vs {*}STRING{*}), I'd say to keep using on config option for both to
enable the constraint enforcer for the sinks.
> Apply padding for BINARY(<precision>)

> When the resulting byte array that is generated for a *CAST(XXX AS
> BINARY(<precision>)* has *length* < {*}precision{*}, then it should be padded
> with *0* to the right, to end up with a byte array of *precision* length,
> similarly to padding with spaces for {*}CHAR(<precision>){*}.
