Dear Maintainer,

firmware-linux recommends both amd64-microcode AND intel-microcode packages. Please consider if recommending amd64-microcode OR intel-microcode would be enough.

Considered and rejected.  We have no way of selecting the right one
automatically, so that would not be very helpful.  And since it's a
recommendation, there is nothing to stop you removing the microcode
package you don't want.
