?? ",,, Linux 5.19 Preps "COMPAT" Mode For 32-bit Apps On 64-bit Kernels & More"

if we reason in this sense
modern processors are between 32-bit and 64-bit chips
when the user selects an operating system
does that mean 50% of the processor is 32-bit and 50% is 64-bit!?
so are we using 50% of a purchased processor!?
