>But why do you need the length of a pointer to also be a power of two? Are you addressing the bits in the pointer? Indeed. The entanglement code will crawl without easy direct addressing of the bits. We wouldn't want the universe to run even slower, would we now? It would also make the development emulator impossible to run leading to even more bugs and missed deadlines.
