> but in little-endian systems the order of the individual bits in a byte is still (kind of) big-endian, with the most meaningful bit on the left, right? Single bits are not addressable, so from the point of view of a programmer "order of bits" isn't well-defined. There isn't a way to distinguish endianness of bits for a programmer.
