535 If a table has fewer than 256 entries, it cannot be read or written
536 beyond the maximum number of entries it has.
535 It is a static analysis error if it cannot be proven that a read or write
536 to a table falls within the defined size of that table.

538 (If a table has 256 entries, then there is never a problem, because a byte
539 cannot index any entry outside of 0..255.)
540
541 A SixtyPical implementation must be able to prove that the index is inside
542 the range of the table in various ways. The simplest is to show that a
543 constant value falls inside or outside the range of the table.
