Not to pick on Ian in particular, but I'm going to call bike-shed
on this discussion now.

Please just make it 4K on 32bit archs and 16K on 64 bit archs, and
get on with your lives.

If experience in -current (that's why developers run current, right ?!)
documents that this was the wrong decision, we can revisit it.

Until then:  Shut up and code.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
