on binary type

See the following workflow:

Binary is simply the type used to decode the bytes. For example, if I have the 
characters '1', '2', and '3', and decode them using the binary type, I get the 
bytes 31, 32, and 33 in hex. However, I should still be able to sort them and 
later decode them as strings if needed.

My point is that the type used to decode the data should not affect the ability 
to sort the data, since we might choose a different decoding method later, or I 
just want to sort bytes.
