In the principle of fairness, let me play devil's advocate for a moment.

 - it does take some time for re@ to release and test sparc64 images.

 - having sparc64 in 'make universe' does require developers to spend
   more time regression-testing their (non-sparc64) changes.

OTOH once an architecture is removed from 'make universe' it's effectively
dead, as bitrot sets in instantly.
