Yes, that's the point.
While I agree with Robert and you that revocation certs are smaller and
therefore easier to OCR than keys, they would be *even easier* to OCR if
they were encoded in Base16 and had per-line checksums.

ASCII armor has a few characters which are somewhat hard to tell apart (orimarily 0s and Os - note to myself: find a better font) and if such 'entropy' can be avoided this increases reliability of the import.
