This doesn't feel like a serious question, but in case this is still a mystery to you… the name bit is a portmanteau of binary digit, and as indicated by the word "binary", there are only two possible digits that can be used as values for a bit: 0 and 1.

So trinary and quaternary digits are trits and quits?

[eqvinox]

Yes, trit is commonly used for ternary logic. "quit" I have never heard in such a context.

So shouldn't a two-state datum be a twit ?
