why we will have no more the right to use it under x64 OS...
Because Microsoft declared it as deprecated. That means that should
Microsoft ever bring out a 64-bit only OS ...
In fact this still is a (mere) portability problem. Supposedly in such a
64-bit only OS, 32 bit executables will not lose "extended" but will not
be able to be started at all.
In fact I suppose there will be possibilities to run them in a virtual
machine. E.g. Virtual Box already can build up an invisible "one window"
virtual machine for a single running program.
