IMO, defining your own types is one step too far. Now everyone who is already familiar with C types has to learn your own quirky system to understand one program. I think it does probably make sense to be specific about the sizes though e.g. using uint32_t over just uint (and expecting to receive some architecture-dependent size you might not get with uint.) These types should be defined in the right header (I think it depends on compiler?) It's been a while since I wrote any amount of C so my apologizes if this isn't correct.
