Whether it goes into a register doesn't matter.  Hex values are useful
for values which are subdivided into various bitfields, or whose hex
representation is simpler than decimal.  I'm not familiar with the
details of this hardware, but I doubt the former is the case for
0x3b9ac9fb == 9999999995 or 0x18696 == 99990.
