And how many people looked at /centos/7/ and then complained that
package was not provided for arch they used?

Definition of altarch changes too. Also you can provide information
which architectures are on which list.

And in meantime please give some a11y docs to webmaster as whole
centos.org website is nightmare to look. My eyes are not young and I can
not stand looking at those pages for more then minute.

I hope that with CentOS 9 or 10 we will have discussion with "do we
consider x86-64 altarch or not" :D
