   I've been recently bitten by an agressive policy about completely   
   lack/drop of support for old hardware (aka «programmed obsolescence») by   
   both, Almalinux and LibreOffice projects.   
      
   That situation directed me to this document¹ («Building Red Hat   
   Enterprise Linux 9 for the x86-64-v2 microarchitecture level») which I   
   find it could useful to be ported/adapted into Debian's Installation   
   Guide², under «2.1.2. CPU Support» section.   
      
   I find the current CPU support section is too generic, that is, a bit   
   «short» and unspecific; meaning, by its current redaction it cannot be   
   easily known what CPUs are currently supported by Debian's kernel build   
   options.   
      
   Just something for you to consider.
