So do I. Moreover, if "1" is for two digits, there is no way to
specify single digits - for little use we can perceive for that.

Maybe it does not need to be named "chunk_size" - "digits_per_block"
is too big, but is precise.

Also, whatever we think is good for "hex" could also be done to "bin" .
