That's about the only reason to care as far as I can tell.

I was pretty surprised to see that relatively recent ports like Bioshock Infinite won't be getting a 64-bit update. We had 64-bit games back in 2005 starting with the original Far Cry, so I'm not sure how this could even be a problem nearly 15 years later.

Even building for 32 bit again can be a lot of trouble, let alone updating every little dependency

Irrational Games, who made Bioshock Infinite’s company went out of business. Who is going to update it?
