Even if we did, I cannot think of any compelling reason to make such a
change (and I don't recall one ever being brought up in our entire
history). If we had forty architecture directories in /sys, so what?
Why should it matter to anyone?
If we were talking about 100 architectures, I might feel differently,
but in this universe, we have, what? eight? And there are how many
architectures currently in mass production? This whole discussion is
ridiculous.
