Author here: In mathematics, in particular discrete mathematics, there is a genuine need to store long integers accurately and to compare them numerically. This encoding is useful to do this for any database that can store UTF-8 strings and has a sorted index for these doing string sort. The person in the talk wanted to store data about finite groups and large group orders are one such application. |
