In Verilog (at least the one I am somewhat familiar with) buses are
defined like "wire [7:0] thing", and subsets of them are accessed like
"thing[7]" (single value) or "thing[3:0]" (the lower 4 bits), so it
would make sense to define pin ranges like D[0:15]

funny thing, I typed D[0..15] at first, too much bash written lately :D
