I'd say 5. There's 8 nits in a wit, so a half wit is 4.

I might be thinking ounces and pints though. Never mind.

There are 8 bits in a byte, and two bytes in a word .... so it's somewhere between 0 and 1

Nit-wits, half-wits. I think I'd rather be a nit-wit if I had to choose.

You might be better off with half a wit vs no wit.
