Don't worry about it. Do a best-effort, and if nobody ever reacts
about some odd-ball architecture, whatever.

We won't start deleting architectures over something like this, but it
might be another sign down the road that some arch code can be removed
entirely.

So it's not arch/score I'd worry about. It's all the *other* architectures..
