It wants a base32 string. Not a hexidecimal representation of a base32 string. I think there was a translation utility made somewhere here. Theres nothing to understand other than squares dont go into the triangle hole.

So randomhex has no practical use in pyotp, It's just a tool method that other applications can call, right?

Yes

I understand. Thank you
