biscuits,

32 bit code so far does everything I need. There will undoubtedly be instances where 64 bit would be better suited for a particular project that I plan on.

there are of course other advantages besides the extended address space of 64 compared to 32 bit. Not only the width, but also the number of registers is dramatically higher. This applies to both
integer and floating point registers. In many cases, this makes it possible to simply keep temporary results inside the processor; that can speed up some algorithms considerably. Especially in this
direction, there is still a lot of uncharted territory that needs to be discovered. You can let off steam there.
