   [continued from previous message]   
      
   Due to armhf being a legacy platform today, it is unlikely that   
   important software will suddenly make NEON a hard requirement   
   now - it is more common that a package drops  armhf support,   
   or more commonly support for 32-bit.   
      
   If the only tradeoff is between hardware support and marginal   
   performance improvements, that's not a good case for dropping   
   hardware support - and anyone who cares about performance   
   should anyway not be using armhf in 2027.
