Why does the heap_page_item () of the pageinspect extension not consider
providing better user-friendliness?

My test table has the following data, and when I look at the t_data I see
data of type bytea instead of a more intuitive type, even the same type as
the original table.

tuple_data_split() can do this (split the data into individual
attributes). If you want a friendlier, more visual way of getting this
information, then you may find pg_hexedit helpful:
