I don't think it's a typo. Memory is typically byte-addressable 
and thus data types are either a byte or larger. Having a data 
type smaller than a byte means reading or writing to that 
variable will have to involve bit-twiddling operations which can 
make operations more expensive.

There are bitfields[1] and BitArrays[2] if you really need 
control of a data type on the bit level.
