I tend to agree, but from experience talking with people at shows,
etc. ... well, nothing you put is going to make sense to everyone.

Maybe just build on the poor understanding instead?

"This is our PC version, it will work on any PC" == 32-bit

"This is our PC version for the latest hardware, use it if you know
that you have a '64-bit' processor."

etc.

This is a bit icky, trying to figure out wording that has meaning to
technical and non-technical users.  Do you all want Marketing or maybe
Docs input, too?
