I am not wedded to the perhapsBitSize name
I've lost track of where this proposal is, but if we do end up with a Maybe function then I think it should be called maybeBitSize or bitSizeMaybe. The only analogous example in the core libraries that I can think of OTTOMH is Text.Read.readMaybe. Thanks IAn
