I have not managed to make that mistake yet either, but in the process of
debugging a portion, some reasonable time after writing it, and having been
sidetracked into other hardware issues, have been through the loop of being
certain I have the correct bit name, but not sure if the register is really
the correct one, and had to double check to make sure.
