This is a 2D matrix, with one byte per column, and one bit per row. There are
only 6 rows, so two bits per byte are unused. Converting this to the bitmap API
would unnecessarily complicate things.

The "return 0" pattern is idiomatic, and more diff-friendly when adding error
handling or more operations. But I don't have that strong of an opinion on it.
