I must admit that from the techie POV there is some logic to this line of reasoning.
As ever so often in life however, that is not how this evolved. The one that started it - it wasn't me - apparently thought it was a good idea to present the node number in human readable, and human easy to remember, form. iow in the from that node numbers are usually presented to humans: in decimal.
So far 29 others have followed this idea.

Sorry, no. Decimal is the game.
If you do not like the rules you are free to start your own game of course. But if you do, please be so kind to use something other than "f1d0" for the first 16 bits of the host part of the address. "f1d0" is already in use as a keyword for representing the node number in decimal.
