Julie Tibshirani commented on LUCENE-10175:
-------------------------------------------

+1 it'd be good to avoid exposing the binary format. I'm not aware of a way the 
method is helpful to external users, or necessary for features we want to build.

> It's unclear to me why we have VectorValues#binaryValue. This exposes 
> implementation details that I'd rather like to avoid exposing in our 
> higher-level APIs such as the Directory byte order. And I worry that it might 
> be in the way of upcoming features like supporting bfloat16.
