I've never had to use any sort of compatibility mode to launch a 32 bit program.

Sure did. Windows does that automatically while "compatibility mode is rather an "extra compatibility mode". And on wine, 32 bit is default, 64 bit still considered beta.

    Wine is a totally different topic and unrelated. But my point is that if it's so seamless, even if it's internally launching it in some compatibility mode, why mention it in the article? On 64 bit Windows I've never had to actively think about programs compiled for 32 bit Windows (old programs for previous versions of Windows being a totally different topic). That's why I'm saying this article sounds like AI slop.
