Comment(by ds):

 Good points; thanks for explaining.

 FWIW, I'm probably biased by my current use case, where I have a large
 number of small bitvectors, and the work consists of virtually nothing but
 aggregate operations.

 Ended up making a specialized class for that (with instances `Word`,
 `Word64` and `Vector`s of these, and choice of instance based on a known-
 at-runtime size, which is often <= 64).
