In theory, some platform might have a 64-but "unsigned long long" time_t even if the architecture is 32-bit (apparently windows used to do that if you included <time64.h>, for example), but since we wouldn't take advantage of that anyway, even then there is no real advantage.
It could also be worth to notice that there are even 64-bit architectures that feature 32-bit 'time_t'...
