The purpose of supporting LSUI is to eliminate PAN toggling. CPUs that support LSUI are unlikely to support a 32-bit runtime. Since environments that support both LSUI and a 32-bit runtimeare expected to be extremely rare, not to emulate the SWP instruction using LSUI instructions in order to remove PAN toggling, and instead simply disable SWP emulation.
