At this decade.
I specifically wrote remark about FPGA. Creating new processors
becomes easy as creating software for them.
In the future we will have a lot of different processors inside
of PC case. I can easily imagine special purpose CPU with byte
sized 6 or 16. So as for me it’s better to get rid of this name,
since in the very first version of D language it was declared
that standard types are platform independent (except size_t of
course).
