BigEndian looks best when used in protocols, yet there is the argument that it is inconsistent in bit and byte addressing. In little endian (1 << (n % (8 * sizeof(*p)) & p [n / (8 * sizeof(*p)] always masks the nth bit of a number stored at p, regardless of the size of the integer type pointed at by p.
