Martin v. Löwis added the comment:

I read the discussion, but couldn't see anything relevant in it. Please be 
explicit.

As for the reading the PEP, consider this paragraph in particular:

    It may be surprising that the launcher is installed into the
    Windows directory, and not the System32 directory. The reason is
    that the System32 directory is not on the Path of a 32-bit process
    running on a 64-bit system. However, the Windows directory is
    always on the path.

I think this is quite an explicit rationale.
