I think it is much more readable, since we abstracted away all bit-masking details. The `BitField` type is contained in the [bit_field] crate. (It's pretty new, so it might still contain bugs.) To add it as dependency, we run `cargo add bit_field` and add `extern crate bit_field;` to our `src/lib.rs`.
