It seems better.  I could be wrong but this is quickly turning into a very
colourful bikeshed so I think that we should try to reach a compromise between
the x86-64 guys, the AMD64 guys and the "AMD64 or its Intel equivalent" folks.

I was only commenting from an FDP-style POV so that the change wasn't lost in
a greater than necessary diff.  If you think that "x86-64 (AMD64) compatible"
is better, it's better for me too.
