Sometimes, you just have to decide if it's worthwhile crippling your 
software, or discarding the simplest, most obvious and most efficient 
approach to a problem, because it might not work on some odd-ball 
machine that hardly anyone uses and is practically obsolete anyway.

And there weren't any minis and mainframes with ridiculous 
architectures? (60-bit words for example with no way to access 
character-sized chunks!)

Some things you can just feel are naturally right. Such as 
byte-addressable memory, and a file system with an interface based on 
the file-sizes measured in bytes (even though most memory hardware 
worked in single bits, while disk drives used a bit-stream divided into 
512-byte sectors).

Those new, simple microprocessors which started emerging at that time 
(actually well before 1983) must have been a breath of fresh air.

Whatever the ANSI people were doing, there was no way they were going to 
be able to ignore this new wave of machines which opened up computing to 
millions.

(And anyway, also at this time, I was creating compilers and running 
programs on some of these machines without any trouble at all, without 
any benefit of C either. It really wasn't hard. But then I wasn't 
troubled by a requirement to write programs which would work unchanged 
on a 6.5-bit word computer, with a 3-word-addressable memory, and which 
used signed-magnitude except on Tuesday afternoons!

Pandering to the lowest common denominator is one way of creating 
'portable' software. It's also a way of writing the least efficient and 
most complicated, and ensuring it takes several times as long! If it 
ever completes.)
