I would think this would be due to misunderstanding by new users more
than anything else.
Most, if not all 32 bit arch machines are probably going to consume
far more energy than newer machines of far greater capability. That
is, it probably doesn't make any financial sense to continue running
an old 32 bit machine.
And if it is user misunderstanding, then many of those probably have
suitable 64 bit machines anyway.
