Isn't the purpose of this check to ensure that the entire pointer is written, and BPF can't write half of it?

Wouldn't "(size != sizeof(struct bpf_sock *) && size != sizeof(__u64))" be more appropriate here, so 32-bit can only write the 32-bit pointer or the full 64-bit value, and 64-bit can only write the 64-bit pointer? Or is there a reason not to? bpf folk?
