Correct. Lots of things which depend on the clock frequency being 96/48 would stop working if it was set to 72. Since the 48MHz part reliably clocks to 96, the 72MHz part does too (but I believe there are some improvements, memory access speed? I read it a while ago and can't find it now).
When 72 MHz is supported, a LOT of things won't work until they're also updated. It's a big job, and honestly it's been a much lower priority than getting the audio library published.
