It doesn't, and I don't see where I've made that claim. I'm refuting the opposite. The initial claim was:
> I didn't explicitly call that out, but as soon as you have more than 4GB of memory, there's going to be an application that wants to use more than 4GB. So yes, 64-bit is necessary in my opinion. Especially when you consider the server market.
I'm just saying I don't agree. There is a massive market very open to the power saving offered by arm that have no use for > 4GB process spaces. That doesn't mean there aren't markets where 64bit will be useful.
I think we are on different pages with the word "necessary". I am using it as "needs to exist as an option", and I think you're using it as, "needs to be used by everyone".
