Either one or the other I can >see, but both at the same time would run into difficulties. I can't see how, unless both bases are decimal(-ish) (which makes the discussion moot). In no cases are the number of values covered the same for any possible pairs of lengths, so the intermediate format always needs to be we a wider type than for initial and final formats. So for A->B->A we need B to be (equal or) wider than A, and for B->A->B we need A to be (equal or) wider than B. And the equal case can't happen with different bases (at least those that are not a simple power of one or another - for instance base 10 and base 100).
