"rmadison clustalw" shows:

  clustalw   | 2.1+lgpl-6    | oldoldstable   | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
  clustalw   | 2.1+lgpl-7    | oldstable      | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
  clustalw   | 2.1+lgpl-7    | stable         | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mips64el, mipsel, ppc64el, s390x
  clustalw   | 2.1+lgpl-7    | testing        | source, amd64, arm64, mips64el, ppc64el, s390x
  clustalw   | 2.1+lgpl-7    | unstable       | source, amd64, arm64, mips64el, ppc64el, s390x
  clustalw   | 2.1+lgpl-7    | unstable-debug | source
  clustalw   | 2.1+lgpl-7+b1 | unstable       | riscv64

So since clustalw/2.1+lgpl-7/i386 is still in oldstable and stable, it
has to be kept in the pool; files are only expired from the pool once
they're no longer referenced anywhere.  (And yes, I think there's a
delay between removing references from index files and removing the
actual pool files, to avoid mirroring race conditions.)
