In RFC 3493, it says:
  
   struct in6_addr {
        union {
            uint8_t  _S6_u8[16];
            uint32_t _S6_u32[4];
            uint64_t _S6_u64[2];
        } _S6_un;

Why is it not:

   struct in6_addr {
        union {
            uint8_t  _S6_u8[16];
            uint16_t _S6_u16[8];
            uint32_t _S6_u32[4];
            uint64_t _S6_u64[2];
        } _S6_un;
 
Adding the uint16_t breakdown seems like it would be useful, and cost
nothing.  Is there some non-obvious reason it was left out?
