Florian,

updates does not have composes it has mashes, the behaviour is expected
to be different, the problem boils down to the fact that if a package
is made multilib indirectly, i.e. it is only pulled in because some
external package that is multilib requires it, it will only be multilib
in updates or updates-testing if the package requiring it is also in
the same repo. the way we make the updates and updates-testing repos
make the repo and does multilib in isolation, without any consideration
 for what was multilib in the base repo, as it has no knowledge it even
exits,  we have had a bug open for ~8 years to fix and until this year
when you raised an issue about it had not had any reports of issues
since we defaulted to not installing multilib by default.
