Finally! My joy knows no bounds.

Why?
They seem pretty harmless, are they difficult to implement?

And it's still broken on my phone.

#9"Extended integer types may be wider than intmax_t". I'm sure there's a good reason for this, but it was introduced in C99, which says (in 7.8.1.5): "[intmax_t] designates a signed integer type capable of representing any value of any signed integer type".
That was already portable between 16 bit, 32 bit, 64 bit etc. Why is it that just because the compiler supports 128 bit or 256 bit integers that compiling in such a mode doesn't correspondingly update "[u]intmax_t"?
The linked page says they 'cannot be "extended integer types" in the sense of C17', but that printf() and scanf() should still support these?
