This is all true, but not always. E.g. separting the integer and fractional
parts allows looping over the integer parts for horizontal positioning,
using the same index for reading the position (xPos,X) and writing to
the hardware registers (RESP0,X; HMP0,X). Else you would need two
separate indexes.
Have?fun!
