I feel this particular question didn't get answered:

> I suggest we hurry slowly here. Do we understand what the meaning of the
Bits class is? Lets make sure we don't make it harder for use for the
majority use case of performing bitwise operations on machine sized
quantities.

I don't want to stop the proposal if it has broad support, but have we
really thought this thing through?
