While true, I need a concise way to express this since there are multiple bitfields defined throughout this file and in other files (some of which have not yet been written). If it was easy to insert images into RestructuredText, I could just draw it out, but I was hoping this could be understood to mean "the first 8 bits are X, the next 7 bits are Y, the final bit is Z", etc.
