No, the underlying type can also be specified for plain enums too. Try it: enum MyPlainEnum: unsigned char And there's my next point: it's hard to think of a case where this is really useful for 'decoding from raw data', given the very limited allowances that C++ makes for type-punning and other shenanigans. To me it's only useful for conveying numerical semantics and saving space in class layouts, not much else.
