This is an excellent argument. It's still not a cap, since spintronics or all sorts of other forms of transferance is possible, but it's not feasable for those to be needed for this revision. Ok so we cap it to 64bit, since much more than that doesn't make sense (96bit would be a "long double" C type) I really don't like this idea, but I...

I know some floating point DSP chips use a 48 bit float internally, but if there is more than one they are unlikely to be compatible and they certainly cannot be read by standard CPUs without having pull each value apart into
