The byte datatype is needed to store integer values within range in the least amount of memory. A JVM might be implemented on processors with smaller than 32-bit registers, and memory resources are not always abundant. Not many people "have" to use bit-shifting in "normal" coding. It's been a while, but IIRC some compression algorithms use bit-shifting. I'm sure there are ...
