There is no 4-state equivalent to shortint either.

I think the reason is that the goal of the 2-state types was to match
the C types, with no intent to provide a full orthogonal set of 2/4-state
integer types.  Even making it look as orthogonal as it does required
specifying integer and time to be exactly 32 and 64 bits, which does not
match the 1364 LRM.
