Oh, I'm aware it makes no difference internally; I picked that documentation because I am somewhat intimately familiar with it as I worked on a product with that CPU and did a lot of driver work. My only point was to the poster I was replying to, who wrote "because when you number the bytes and bits you will see that the bytes are written left-to-right, while at the same time the bits are written right-to-left". That assumes that bits are universally numbered starting with 0 at the LSB, which isn't true.
