Welchen Nutzen haben Schlüssel beim Erstellen von Tabellen in WordPress/Emlog?

<code>CREATE TABLE $wpdb->blogs (
  blog_id bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  site_id bigint(20) NOT NULL default '0',
  domain varchar(200) NOT NULL default '',
  path varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
  registered datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
  last_updated datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
  public tinyint(2) NOT NULL default '1',
  archived tinyint(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  mature tinyint(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  spam tinyint(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  deleted tinyint(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  lang_id int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY  (blog_id),
  KEY domain (domain(50),path(5)),
  KEY lang_id (lang_id)
) $charset_collate;

CREATE TABLE {$db_prefix}reply (
  id int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  tid int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  date bigint(20) NOT NULL,

  ip varchar(128) NOT NULL default '',
  PRIMARY KEY  (id),
  KEY gid (tid),
  KEY hide (hide)
)</code>
