I'm working on the ALU and my guess is that I'm making things more complicated than they need to be .. does it make sense to have a DMux16 to switch between alternate paths?

thanks

E.g.

          Sel   
           |------------------|
in---[Dmux16]---- path_1 ----[Mux16]--- out
             \--- path_2 ---/
