Neither do you if you have only 8 bit especially if you group 
them with underscores.
Even 16 bit would be easy to read like that.

ubyte foo = 0b0010_1011;
ubyte bar = 0x2b;

Task: flip bit 3.

foo: 1. overwrite bit 3 with a 0.

bar: 1. convert 2b to binary
      2. flip the bit
      3. convert that back to hex.

foo 1 step
bar 3 steps

Checking which bits are set ?

foo - it's obvious at a glance.
bar - 2 steps: convert to binary -> read the bit

which is user friendlier ?
