It doesn't give the end user any reason to move to 64 bits, and at the same time erects some hefty barriers to them doing so. Having to install a completely separate version (64 bit) of Windows at a higher price, and then shop around for replacements for all the apps, while having the OS at the same time, look and act exactly the same is a big problem. The average user sees no reason to "switch" to 64 bit anything and will not jump through any hoops to do so.
