   So would you say that people erroneously thought the   
   address registers and data registers would all be   
   uniform, but they were wrong, there were reasons to   
   make them different, but now we're back to the   
   original being right - generally things are uniform   
   these days?   
      
   And thus the conclusion would be that we may as well   
   have a simplified set of tools assuming uniformity,   
   and it is only if someone has something non-standard   
   that they will need to go to the effort of accommodating   
   that?   
      
   Basically this ties into standardizing on a.out. I've seen   
   the internals of that and see no reason why we can't   
   let that naturally expand with theoretical future   
   technology that has consistent data and address   
   sizes.
