One motivation for choosing a mod30 representation is being able to
compute more primes -- almost twice as many.  Any machine with 64GB
of memory should be able to compute primes up to 1.5 trillion.
Even if an odds-only representation runs faster for more limited
sizes (and I'm not yet convinced that it does), it doesn't matter
if it's faster, because it doesn't do the job.  I was computing all
32-bit primes 20 years ago, back when 32-bit machines were a thing.
The challenge for today's world is correspondingly higher.
