Ouch!!!

That shows that ARM should be the LAST architecture we consider for primary
status rather than the first. (That said, I don't think it makes sense to
make PPC primary again or to make S/390 primary. They don't have anywhere
near the market share. But IMHO ARM doesn't have the market share either.)
