Except the hex (or binary) editor isn't quite perfect yet. Improving this is obviously very important for gene editing.

I think the problem is also, that the code which was the base for the binary is also pretty crappy legacy code without encapaulation etc.

Or built with an optimizing compiler. Point being, just like with typical binaries, you can't easily read what the program will be doing; it's not apparent in the structure of data.
