I don’t feel like distributing two variants of the ISO per architecture.
In addition to the fact that it would take up more space on the GNU
servers, I suspect few users would know which one to choose (I
wouldn’t.)  It’s also something other distros don’t do: you get only one
ISO per architecture.

Thanks,
Ludo’.
