% The bitset is stored as a string (but one shouldn't rely on the internal

-% unlimited, only restricted by \TeX-memory. But the export function
+% unlimited, only restricted by \TeX-memory. But the functions to set and clear
+% bits uses integer functions for the index so bitsets can't be longer
+% than $2^{31} −1$.
+% The export function
% \cs{bitset_to_arabic:N} can use functions from the \texttt{int} module only if
% the largest index used for this bitset is smaller then 32, for longer
% bitsets \texttt{fp} is used and this is slower.
