I think, you do not understand the problem IF someone is using the Stock
Debian Kernel she/he can not upgrade to Etchm since  ALL Etch-Kernels
have SMP compiled in.

It is realy bad from Debian to kick off its USERS.  The MOST USERS do
not know HOW to compile there OWN KERNEL since they are ONLY USERS.

I find your answer VERY annoying and it is against the SC:

"Social Contract" with the Free Software Community
<snip>
  4. Our priorities are our users and free software
     We will be guided by the needs of our users and the free software
     community. We will place their interests first in our priorities.
     We will support the needs of our users for operation in many
     different kinds of computing environments. We will not object to
     non-free works that are intended to be used on Debian systems, or
     attempt to charge a fee to people who create or use such works. We
     will allow others to create distributions containing both the
     Debian system and other works, without any fee from us. In
     furtherance of these goals, we will provide an integrated system
     of high-quality materials with no legal restrictions that would
     prevent such uses of the system.
