* See the [Rust Reference](https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/type-layout.html).
<details>
* `Option<bool>` is another example of tight packing.
* For [some types](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/#representation), Rust guarantees that `size_of::<T>()` equals `size_of::<Option<T>>()`.
* Zero-sized types allow for efficient implementation of `HashSet` using `HashMap` with `()` as the value.
