"Red flags often surface at this point. I’ve had candidates with PhDs in computer science, for instance, who did not know that on a 64 bit architecture, pointers are 64 bits wide."

Because learning 64-bit architecture is impossible for somebody that have proven that they can learn a field, perform research, and successfully write and defend a dissertation? '32 < 64' is beyond them?
