Can anyone tell the advantages of having unreadable URLs like this? The only thing I can think of is reducing bandwidth usage through short URLs :)

You can use up to a radix of 30 I believe in JS, so why use those pesky base 10 values when you can go base 30 with no additional overhead? Heck, use base 62 for the easily url passable values too. Just 4 chars to encode your 14M WP articles. Think of the bits!
