What I meant was that by keeping the value space tight, we avoid the
situation where in some new chip, one of the RSEL resistors happens to
be 200 or 300 ohms. 100 is already taken, so there's nothing we can
do if new designs actually do have 100 ohm settings.

Can you elaborate? It is a simple range check and offset handling. Are
you concerned that a new design would have R2R1R0 and you would like
the macros to be contiguous?

BTW I don't quite get why decimal base values (100, 200, etc.) were
chosen. One would think that binary bases are easier to handle in code.
