Ternary computers have 8 tits to a byte.

  Should be either 9 or 27 I'd think.

    Why can’t it be 8?, the fact that it’s a trit doesn’t put any constraint on the byte (tryte ? size). You could actually make it 5 or 6 trits (~9.5 bits) for similar information density. The Setun used 6 trit addressable units.
