Review Comment:
   SSE4.2 appears to behave identically for x64. The official Microsoft 
documentation lists SSE4.2 as valid flag for msvc-180, but the compiler begs to 
disagree. I am having trouble finding documentation to support this, but 
building with x64 does produce the same nuisance warnings as with x86. This 
appears to be because SSE2 and its extensions are implicitly targeted as the 
baseline. Here is the relevant usage line on my machine:
   
   Command>   "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual 
Studio\18\Professional\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.29.30133\bin\HostX64\x64\cl.exe" /? 
2>nul | findstr "arch:"
   
   [Output]
   /arch:<AVX|AVX2|AVX512> minimum CPU architecture requirements, one of:
   
   Next week I will expand the scope of testing to see if there is *any* MSVC 
version that supports the SSE4.2 flag without warnings.
