I think we’re missing the obvious. No one can timely speak binary or other like that and the convenience is a selling point.
A few different skin locations may make more sense then a meat keyboard. A stab above the left knee= danger
I could also reason that a scam should use a preys language but I can’t imagine what a scammer would get out of selling this operation.
We're overthinking this. The real reason they didn't use binary is because it wasn't invented yet back in the 17th century.
That's because you don't have skin in the game
