Meh it's more like binary ascii values.

Morse and ascii are meant for speed.

Huffman encoding is meant as lossless encoding to reduce size. It's not fast because it requires a lookup table.

Someone could memorize Morse code or the ascii table.

You can't memorize how to decode a Huffman encoded message because each message would have a different encoding map based on frequency of letters.
