Can someone explain how the numbers are related to the comments here:

The idea was to follow the original HC11 encoding, but extending the range. Then people complained it wasn't straightforward ...

So now there is a linear implementation, with comments for the HC11 compatible encoding. Somewhat a mix-up.

Set it to your own preference ...
