i wonder how many windows binaries we have in total... and what subset of them might actually benefit from being x86-64? might adb run faster with more registers? probably not? would aapt2? does anything else even have runtimes long enough that anyone *could* notice?
(the toolchain has been 64-bit for years, so nothing to be gained there.)
