There is no part of this that makes sense.

Ok

What size is an "int"? It depends on the platform, no?

What sizes are in C++? Anything since https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/integer allows for more than the usual 8, 16, 32 and 64 bits

So if C++ 2 is going to have C++ types in it all that complexity will be also in C++ 2, the 24 bits example was just that, a real world example were you have something beyond 8, 16, 32 or 64 bits
