Objective has the clearest meaning when there is only one single lens to look at things. Personally I prioritize usability for the world population of neurotypical users badly needing financial innovation over saving a few CPU cycles or memory bytes or key space in a place users dont notice.
Developers are more likely to prioritize having things fit neatly into binaries. That makes computers and developers happy and sometimes users too. I am pretty comfortable with base32 strings myself with dev experience of my own. But if Bitcoins purpose is to be a coin for developers, so that other developers with UX awareness can tell the rest of Bitcoins story with their successful alt coins that actually deliver the functional comfortable cryptocurrency experience the world is waiting for, then Bitcoin can claim its rightful chapter in history as a solid success
