See what happens when you do something nice for people.

You gave them VEST, that was nice.

You gave them AEST, that was real nice.

And now the equivalent for the move to x86-64 is not something
that would be nice, it is something that is expected.

You forgot that famous motto, "No good deed goes unpunished."
