Because to the end user, what does that mean?  More options and questions and 
buttons suck more.  Things need to work out of the box, and people can 
cripple them after the fact.  Yes, cripple.  You've got hardware that is 
capable of running both x86_64 and i386 (or ppc64 and ppc).  Crippling the OS 
to not support it is something we should _not_ do.
