So I agree that we should try to rename everything currently called "win32" into "windows". But I'd rather see such a global rename refactoring, that will also affect the 64-bit Windows platforms, to be done as a separate, follow-up PR. Are you okay with that?

Yes, I completely agree to do such clean up in separate RFE. Please, file one.
