      I don’t think it has to be a nightmare per se if you start from scratch.

      Instead of 8-bit bytes, you have 5-bit “bytes” (fyves?) Hoozah! Done.

      Now imagine designing a 65 bit computer. The bus, registers, alu…

      You’ll probably waste a lotta chips since most of them are designed for working with powers of 2
