AFAIK, EBX is the one register not used in most WINAPI functions.

M$ like when programmers do things 'their way' ... whether or not they have valid reason is subject of debate, I think =)

Removing inline assembly from x64 just made a pain in the ass. Just like how they not document many ntapi functions... leaving the reverser/programmer to spend much time looking finding their hidden known.
