And let the software in Debian rot more and more because we do not care to catch all kinds of bugs in them that we get hinted at by using those architectures as first class citizens? Supporting more architectures means getting robuster software and being able to catch bugs before they hit everyone's pet architectures. It also means that software is robust enough that compiler have a chance to implement more optimisations, libraries can switch to faster implementations, because software is actually tested a bit wider.
