Yes, I am fully aware of that. We have the same problem on all other ports like hppa which require a bootloader which cannot be uploaded to unstable when it's only available on a ports architecture. SILO was removed because packages which do not build any binary packages in unstable are automatically removed from unstable within a few hours. I discussed this issue with Aurelien at DebConf 15.
