I also just noticed the isSigned method. That seems a little odd, especially if the Num constraint is removed. Should we remove that method too?
It means "does right-shift when the highest bit is 1 put 1-bits or 0-bits in the new high bit positions". The odd name is because this is set up to correspond to signedness (so that right shift is the same as dividing by 2,4,8,etc.,rounding towards negative infinity). -Isaac
