It can only be so for two reasons:
1. Pd's messagesystem is interpreted.
2. Pd has floats and no ints.
But unless you try processing 100000 bytes per second or so, [&] prolly
isn't slow enough to worry.

extracting bits is already pretty easy. you don't even need to know powers
of two. e.g. [bit 13] would be like [>> 13] then [& 1]. You could do it
like [& 8192] then [!=], but you really don't have to.
