      MariaDB [test]> create table t (a blob);
      Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.033 sec)
       
      MariaDB [test]> insert into t values (1),(2);
      Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.013 sec)

      MariaDB [test]> alter table t modify a vector(100);

      MariaDB [test]> insert into t values (1),(2);
      ERROR 4078 (HY000): Cannot cast 'int' as 'vector' in assignment of `test`.`t`.`a`
      

      So, while new values cannot be inserted, existing values got converted into vectors without warnings.

      MariaDB [test]> select vec_totext(a) from t\G
      *************************** 1. row ***************************
      vec_totext(a): [-8084406208738727000000000000000000000.000000,0.000000,...]
      *************************** 2. row ***************************

      2 rows in set (0.001 sec)
      

      Geometry does not work like that:

      MariaDB [test]> create table ts (a blob);
      Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.033 sec)
       
      MariaDB [test]> insert into ts values (1),(2);
      Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.014 sec)

      MariaDB [test]> alter table ts modify a geometry;
