Why we don’t have 128 bit OS or CPUs?
In: 927
Similar reason why we had 2 digit dates until Y2K approached. 4 digits took up twice the space and we were decades away from it mattering.
128-bit CPUs would need twice the size for many things but we’re decades (maybe?) away from hitting the current 64-bit limits. So it’d just be a waste.
