Surely this is just some oversight?

With Linux continually becoming more popular for gaming as well as
business needs to occasionally run some legacy WINE apps, it would be a
bit of a shot in the foot to deprecate these 32-bit libs - at least
while the hardware vendors still support it and produce the libraries.
It would simply make Ubuntu less attractive than other distros for new
users.

I worked around it by downloading the nVidia drivers directly,
extracting the 32-bit directory, and adding it to the linker config.
They work fine with Resolute, so there doesn't seem to be a technical
reason to not build the packages for gamers and the others that need
them... unless the goal is to create a bunch of support requests from
new users who FUBAR'd their systems by trying to use the official NVIDIA
installer.
