    Yes, and "now" technology has advanced so far that the physically installable RAM exceeds the amount that is addressable by AmigaOS (and API clones) since the day it was first introduced. Not really surprising ;-)

    Ruud is on spot here: More RAM addressability would have broken the AmigaOS API compatibility of the ABox.

    No, that would lack any technical reason.
