Whenever the DB allows user defined data types (some do)
and all clients can handle them, then one may consider
using types that reflect the problem domain.

UDDTs, I read, is how things should have been when the DBs
were formalized a little. Today, we may need to learn about the
semantic effects of trailing blanks in VARCHAR of different
vendors' DBMSs, and that's worth money in some places.

So, user defined types may be beneficial in a typical
Ada environment when using a capable DBMS.
