I went to download the 64 bit version of WWB15 and was first lead to a warning page dated two years ago talking about how there might be stability issues.
Its 2 years later ...
Is this still an issue with the 64 bit version or should I just stick with the 32 bit version?

In my opinion there is no issues with the 64-bit version it is as stable as the 32-bit. If you install the 64-bit remember that you will need also install the equivalent extensions.

do you feel there is a benefit of using 64 over 32?

When using the 32-bit it has a limited 2gb memory usage. The 64-bit doesn't have this.

How about rephrasing - what are the benefits of using the 32 bit version?
I've been solely on the 64 bit version since V14 and have seen no need to 'downgrade'

So then I guess the question becomes, why did you 'upgrade'?

I just downloaded the 15.2.2 64 bit version. Changed over from 32 bit.
When I preview the file, all the text is now huge. It looks good in the 32 bit preview and it looks normal in the program itself.
Any thoughts?
