*ahem* perhaps you should be a little bit more humble in your
statements. I've read X.500.

It doesn't, because it doesn't suggest any specific humanly readable
representation at all. It leaves that up to each application.
Incidently, the "binary" form is big-endian, regardless of if we're
talking about LDAP, X.509 certificates or whatnot. So really, X.500
is quite irrelevant for this discussion.
