This comment needs rewording. You shouldn't discuss how it's used (a layering
violation) or about the implementation details ("in a blocking thread")

// A class for reading individual bits from a packed buffer. Bits are read
MSB-first from the
// stream.
// It is limited to 64-bit reads and is inefficient as a design choice. This
class should not
// be used frequently.
//
// [There probably needs to be something here about how this reader encodes
data, otherwise, why is it just not a byte, etc]

Done.
