Though it just occured to me that there are dragons lurking:

Sounds like three-and-a-half architectures which could be queued up for
removal right behind ia64 ...
I suspect none of these architecture maintainers have any idea there's a
problem. Look at commit 87a4c375995e and the discussion in
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180724175646.3621-1-hch@xxxxxx/
Let's cc those maintainers so they can remove this and fix whatever
breaks.
Looks like your scare tactics are working ;-)

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
