>Description:

Sometimes "bit-select" and "part-select" are written with hypens and
sometimes with a space.
I think it should always be a hyphen.

Also, how should it be written when you want to refer to both
bit-selects and part-selects?

Sometimes, as in Table 30, it appears as "bit and part selects".
Then, it is not always clear that "bit" refers to "selects".

The clearest way to write would be "bit-selects and part-selects".
Lacking that, you could write "bit- and part-selects".
