I've said that right from the first correction.  sizeof (short) > sizeof
(int) is permitted but is not in any way practical or even reasonable.

None the less it is permitted by the C standard.  Your say-so is not
required for a conforming implementation.

The example doesn't prove the point.  The point is proved by the text of
the language standard that I (and others) have cited.  The example was
chosen only to find out what you meant by "padding BYTES".  You once
claimed that this was why sizeof (short) > sizeof (int) was not
permitted, so an example without anything that I would call a padding
byte was called for to see what on earth it was you meant.  At least I
now know that "padding BYTES" are not the problem in this one case.
