Default Another 32bit vs 64bit plugin discussion

I have seen a lot of people talk about using only 64 bit plugins, and that is fine. My question, I suppose is technical to some extent.

Let's take the Variety of Sound plugins, for example. Those plugins are 32bit only, however they work just fine in 64bit Reaper due to native bridging.

Is there any reason why one would NOT want to use these plugins? I have yet to have one crap out on me in a 64bit Reaper install. I understand there is a limit to how much memory 32bit programs can access. But outside of this, what would be the reason that many shy away from a 32bit plugin if it still gets the job done?

I try to use 64bit plugins wherever I can. I am currently putting the Dead Duck plugin set through its paces to see how it works out. But I have a soft spot in my heart for the Variety of Sound plugins. They are attractive and they perform as they should.

Your thoughts on the subject?
