"Ambivalent" is probably understated here.  It's hard to imagine

The question, I think, is how much we want to prioritize the
"Workstation experience" on older hardware (or on devices like the
Baytrail tablets).


Just to this point - if we wanted to support the Baytrail tablets
properly we should probably get 64-on-32 working. Allowing 32-bit UEFI
installs probably isn't something we want to do officially.


Has this changed due to IoT?


I am not sure there has been a very large amount of people interested in
doing the work or looking at IoT on i386 since the majority of the hardware
is arm and has no eufi

It's not about i386, it's about booting x86_64 systems from a 32-bit UEFI firmware. Apparently this is still a thing with Baytrail systems.

(It's not related to fedlet AFAICS, whatever that is.)
