What is the rational for only supporting 32kbps G726 and not 16kbps?

Thanks,

G.726 32K is widely used. The other bit rates are not. That seems one 
sensible rationale for only supporting 32K.

Also at the time Mark wrote it.  G726-32 was VERY in the clear on patents
because G726-32 was really the old G721 standard.  The old G723 and Old G721
equals todays G726.  (Also G723 and G723.1 are two different things)
