I think I'm going to have a play with adding RFID cards to doorbot. And discuss if the sofa could do with being lowered a bit now.

I'm intrigued if that could ever be a real pointer... it's definitely got too many bits to map through any virtual memory system I've come across, but I'm not sure about things that aren't memory but are pretending to be: do they use "invalid" virtual addresses anywhere? In a way that could get that far through the 64bit address space? As a real address that would be a couple quintillion yottabytes in, which would need an impressive machine - I make it about another century of Moore's law to get there. I suppose you might not be indexing bytes. Indexing atoms on earth that would only be about a millionth of the way in, so I'll call it plausible as a pointer to an atom in a planet.
