That doesn’t provide a constraint. The quote you mentioned is about why to model computation as a Turing machine vs. some other model, not about how to “find the largest number representable in 64-bits”, which doesn't have an answer.

I believe tromp implies a constraint of “existed before we started answering the question”.

I gave an answer for the largest number known to be representable in 64 bits with a scheme that is clearly not cheating.

Define “cheating”.
