Fine, but that only explains the executable as a 64bit under Linux Standard Base (LSB part in the given reference for those wishing to understand, meaning a standard function through all 'nixes). It's still not the entire LO code base that is 64bit.

This is a structure from the devs in a file naming convention, indicating

not yet a 64bit app. They still have to code 32bit apps to be functional on
64bit O/S's, unlike a naitve 32bit app for a 32bit O/S.

Hope this explains it better.

Umm!!! factually no, LO is still 32bit on Linux

Then why is there an x86_64 version, when the 32 bit version should also
work well?
