Mind you, the decision was made with the release of (I think) Windows XP for x86-64, in 2005. I actually briefly used a computer with Windows 3.11 on it around that time (oh the wonders of school IT). I’m not saying Microsoft’s decision was wrong, though, only that the official rationale is kind of bullshit.
