What if I won't need multilib after couple of years?

Good day to you all!

Will move away from multilib automatically force me to make a fresh install of 
whole system, which is painful? 
Will there be serious performance looses, if I use multilib (is the bulk of 
GNU software running in 64 then)?
And one more transition question: how about move from gentoo to hardened-* 
after gentoo is installed?

/installing fresh system now.../

Switch to hardened profile, compile hardened kernel, recompile
toolchain, emerge -e world.
