Hi Drew, on the feedback / contact question - I recall MS tried hard to keep people on the store pages (discouraging links off-site, encouraging companies to engage with users on the Store / comment pages there).
The place to go & get support & provide feedback directly to CIB is: http://libreoffice.cib.de/ (click on the "free online support" button).

Meanwhile, MS added the option to provide several architecture packages for the same version, so that should be easy to fix (when I evaluated that initially, you had to build a package containing _all_ architectures, which was then quite bulky).

If there's consensus that the store versions should be modified, that's easy to patch out then.

But please be aware that I can no longer speak for CIB (https://blog.allotropia.de/2021/01/14/cib-spins-off-allotropia/) ;) All the best, -- Thorsten
