// It is necessary for packed channels to have their own value type. They cannot simply use an integral large enough to store the data. Here is why:
// - Any operation that requires returning the result by value will otherwise return the built-in integral type, which will have incorrect range

// - Two channels are declared compatible if they have the same value type. That means that a packed channel is incorrectly declared compatible with an integral type
