I agree that creator codes don't work well for pictures, text files, hypertext markup, and rich text documents. But what about all the proprietary binary formats? Is it really such a transgression for Reunion to put a creator code on a family tree file?

In this case (of specific binary files for apps) you don't NEED the creator code. Simply the file type is sufficient to connect a file to it's application.

So they are redundant.
