         idx = RT[i] << 2 | RA[i] << 1 | RB[i]
         RT[i] = (RC & (1<<idx)) != 0
 
-mode may be used to do inversion of ordering, similar to carryless mul
+mode (3 bit) may be used to do inversion of ordering, similar to carryless mul.

+also, another possible variant involving swizzle and vec4:

 another mode selection would be CRs not Ints.
