On that topic of bitness for 64-bit platforms, would it not be better for
CPython to be written such that it uses the same 64-bit strategy on all
64-bit platforms, regardless of the OS?
As it is now, Python running on 64-bit Windows behaves differently (in
terms of bits for the Python's integer) t
some Unix-type platform.

Or is there something I am missing here?
