The only reason you'd want to is to add/remove VCPUs as a mechanism of resource control, so if you were removing a VCPU it wouldn't matter much which one you choose. In other words, there's no reason you'd ever need to remove the BSP in favour of one of the other CPUs. Anyway, I'm not going to lose any sleep over this issue.
