They couldn't have, remember slots are handled by the client. If somebody started changing slot values around the items wouldn't function properly. It will always come down to a single subtraction or addition query of the slot's base binary value. The trick is, as Trevius and I were discussing is figuring out which are ammo and which are power slots (because my dumb ass changed ammo a while back and left power slots alone) but I have that worked out.

At any rate, I'll write a post-it reminding me to fix power slot items in the DB today.
