Why doesn't my processor have built-in BigInt support?

Question

As far as I understood it, BigInts are usually implemented in most programming languages as arrays containing digits, where, eg.: when adding two of them, each digit is added on

Answer 1

Suppose the result of the multiplication needed 3 times the space (memory) to be stored - where would the processor store that result ? How would users of that result, including all pointers to it know that its size suddenly changed - and changing the size might need it to relocate it in memory cause extending the current location would clash with another variable.

This would create a lot of interaction between the processor, OS memory managment, and the compiler that would be hard to make both general and efficient.

Managing the memory of application types is not something the processor should do.
