Because nobody has a 32bit computer nowadays??? Similarly, you got any
empirical evidence to back up the "... safer" part of your speculation?

How does the saying go, "if you think that encryption is the solution to
your problem then you don't understand neither encryption nor your
problem"? I would hazard a guess that over 95% of encrypted traffic needn't
be encrypted at all, but no commercial interest developed "integrity over
http" so we all have to suffer "encryption under http" instead.
