If you read the comments to the words 82:84 and 85:87, they say that the former indicate the supported features, and the latter indicate the enabed features AND in case a feature can't be disabled, the latter words will have the corresponding bit set. So it should be sufficient to check only one word.

I think that it's preferrable to leave the operator on the same line with the first operand...
