Hmm.  I find the netboot installer archives very useful for rescue
purposes.  This sometimes involves PC hardware too old for amd64. I PXE
booted a 20+ year old laptop with no DVD/CD drive (Compaq Evo N410c - CD
drive was part of the optional docking station) using a bullseye
netboot.tar not long ago.

Not a major thing, but if you're going to keep most of i386 anyway...
