I think "standardized bitmask type" is not very clear because it's hard to know 
what is and isn't a standardized bitmask type (it's not a term of art I'm used 
to hearing, anyway). I agree that shifting by them makes no sense, but I also 
have a hard time imagining anyone is using these as shift values in the first 
place, so perhaps the diagnostic can be removed entirely unless we can find 
some code in the wild that does something like this?
