The documentation of `copyMemory()` is not super-clear about endianness.
But it seems to imply that in this case it behaves as if it were to copy 
`short`s, so endianness seems to be preserved.

The invocation of `copyMemory()` here implicitly assumes that 
`ARRAY_CHAR_INDEX_SCALE` and `ARRAY_BYTE_INDEX_SCALE` are 2 and 1, resp., which 
seems quite reasonable but not written in the stone.
