Have you already tried `pip download --platform`? https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_download/#cmdoption-platform
It may be worth setting up devpi (maybe in a container) and caching the packages; particularly for CI: https://packaging.python.org/guides/index-mirrors-and-caches/ AFAIU, there's no way to specify a limited set of packages and platforms to mirror with bandersnatch?
