When people are using the phrase "binary blob" they are not actually picturing an amoeba-like evil alien I am! I didn't even know blob was meant to be an acronym (or, in fact, anything other than what the word "blob" suggests) before this discussion, so, to me, binary blob always meant binary lump of goo-like stuff.
