It's probably not bait. It's easy to intuitively think 64 bits is only double. I do these calculations regularly as security professional (password strength for example) but not everyone does.

Well, 64 bits is often used with nanoseconds, and 32 bits is in seconds, so it's a bit more complex than it seems.
