But on a binary scale this would translate to 11 base 10.

Wut?

10 binary = 2 decimal

10 decimal = 1010 binary

Where are we getting 11?

10 is the base (2) overflowed by 1 (zero indexed) which kind of translates to 10+1 base 10 (1 indexed). I didn't really mean in in mathematical but rather nonsensical way. I just wanted to pull 11/10
