An explanation can be found in the Simple Times 6(1) column "Questions
Answered" written by Dave Perkins:

This TC uses in INTEGER type and does not define a DISPLAY-HINT. Since
the SMIv2 does not say such values should be rendered in decimal if
no DISPLAY-HINT clause is present, implementations can in principal
render values by using whatever base they like to use. By adding a
DISPLAY-HINT "d" clause this ambiguity can be avoided.
(In practical terms, the commonly implemented default rendering seems
to be decimal rendering on all implementations I have seen in my life
but you know how the IETF works - simply saying it is decimal by
default is too difficult...)
