I think that the comment in the code ("try to keep qlp coeff precision
such that only 32-bit math is required for decode of <=16bps streams") explains
it:
flac overrides the value of qlp_coeff_precision in order to increase decoding
speed.
64-bit additions, multiplications and shifts are relatively slow on 32-bit CPUs,
and 32-bit operations are preferable.
