in Just Heard About an Open-Source Database Conference on Code Spatter

in Careful with Numeric Data Types in MySQL on Code Spatter
Any ideas as to why they did that? It seems like an awkward syntax; where we usually input a storage size, they went with a display size value. Something like this would be more useful on a LONGTEXT field.
