I don't see a requirement for a binary other than feeding a blob.
And don't like the idea to add another blob to cbfs just to feed another
blob. But actually I don't care much about the blob case.

What I care about is that we shouldn't serialize in the first place if
we can avoid it. Even if we don't serialize at runtime but use a binary,
we'd still waste runtime cycles deserializing later.
