Is it marginally easier to stay below the CD size limit with 32-bit builds vs 64-bit? i.e. could Fedora retain Live CD for i386, and move to a Live DVD for x86_64? Or what problems are there abandoning Live CD for < 10% (by estimates thus far), but retaining the ability to use netinst.iso for that hardware? I think the negative loss of this hardware for Live Desktop trial is minimal compared to the gain by dropping the limit. But if it's almost trivial to have two Live Desktop builds: CD and DVD, then I'd suggest that route.
