Bytes is a way to store data. Its unrelated to memory management, even if its automatic.

I wouldn't say unrelated, but anyway what's the broad term for what you are doing when you are being concerned with how bytes are stored then? Whatever that is, there's a generation of coders already who aren't doing so much of it
