Re: What is the preferred way to ask for large numbers of arch-specific removals?

Do I assume correctly that this paragraph had big and little endianness swapped, and in fact you are removing scientific/statistical software from the now-rare big-endian architectures (s390x and some -ports) and the surviving 32-bit architectures (armhf, i386 and -ports), while leaving it intact on the more common 64-bit little-endian architectures (amd64 and so on)?
