The difference isn't that big, anyway. Default code operation size  
changes, but this doesn't require changes to the actual code (even in .ASM  
source files) if the assembler or compiler supports both 16- and 32-bit  
output. The code segment can be larger than 64 KiB, which might be the  
main advantage.

Not necessarily. Some applications even run dual-mode (RM or 16-bit PM) so  
even 16-bit has it's advantages. The 64 KiB code segment limit is the only  
real disadvantage. (Or are code segments with 16-bit default operation  
size not actually limited to 64 KiB?)
