I got the impression the author was implying because CHAR_BIT is enforced to be 8 that uint8_t and char are therefore equivalent, but they are different types with very different rules.

E.g. `char p = (char )&astruct` may violate strict aliasing but `uint8_t p = (uint8_t )&astruct` is guaranteed legal. Then modulo, traps, padding, overflow, promotion, etc.

It's the other way around.
