I would agree with this point; although I rarely have had to fix i386-only issues, they come up now and then. With our Proposed Migration[1] infrastructure, it is extra work to maintain *any* additional architecture. "Free from Debian" isn't necessarily an excuse either. Often times, issues that we need to fix are Ubuntu-specific. With the Debian Release Team starting to embrace autopkgtesting for testing migration, this improves things, but not completely. By that same logic, where's our RISC V port? What about SPARC64? The answer I have consistently gotten (and agree with, for that matter) is that it takes time, money, and infrastructure to maintain these ports. Certainly, if there is good cause to remove a port from the archive without causing many issues, saving developer time is preferred.
