My reasoning: Sub-modular synths, like SyncC modular, where you design
your own filters, also support single-sample audio feedback (to make IIR
Filters). Single-sample processing is beyond GMPI, therefore double
precision comunication is also out of scope.

Why is single-sample processing beyond GMPI? If it lasts as long as MIDI
has lasted, then you don't think in 5-10 years time we'll all be building
systems -- on the desktop -- that have single sample latency? We'd better
be...
You've also neglected the ugly marketing reasons to allow support 64-bit, or
indeed any other "exciting" new audio data types. Some non-GMPI
(proprietary) plugin standard is going to move to whizzy audio format XYZ,
and GMPI will then under market pressure to keep up. We need to at least
have the design allow for extensibility on this front.
