Yeah, checking C11 (FCD), “The typedef name uintN_t designates an unsigned integer type with width N and no padding bits.” My reading is that they should not have defined `uint8_t`. Probably they did so pragmatically (and maybe optionally) because so much code writes `intN_t` when they mean `int_leastN_t`, with 8 in particular. I don't think I've ever actually seen the `_least` or `_fast` versions used in real life. (I've worked with multiple processors with MAU>8; I recall at least one with 24-bit ‘bytes’, though I've forgotten what domain drove that.)
