But is there a particular advantage to getting rid of the bitfield?

You're the maintainer, so it's your decision of course.  But if it were
me I'd leave it as a bitfield so that all the bitfield code is there if
it's needed in the future.  Flipping it to a bool, with the risk of
flipping it back to a bitfield later, seems like pointless churn to me.

(Although perhaps the reason will become evident by the time I get to
the end of the series.)
