But our live images are already heavily size-constrained. There's definitely no room for multiple kernels on the KDE live image, and I don't think the
GNOME image has any room left either.

Was already discussed the requirement of CDs nowadays? Even the oldest computers already have DVD and I miss more a fully-featured LiveDVD 5GB spin.

Well for x86_64 we can/should do this.
Good luck on finding a x86_64 computer/laptop without a DVD drive.

Note that while a DVD drive is an option, it does not come with one
by default and it costs $225.00 extra.  It took me 30 seconds to
find that machine.  I'm sure there are more.

I think that is a poor example for this discussion since it doesn't have a CD option at all. The link is to a laptop with no optical media. The only media choice is a DVD burner.
