I'm not underestimating. I'm just explaining there is poor support generally for 32 bit and actually I think it's a shame.

Maybe they have 32 bit cpus? There is no 32 bit Windows 10 now, and that was really only for 64 bit Atoms that can't sanely run 64 bit windows due to built in RAM limits. The 64 bit Linux is fine on those but the installer needs a patched 32bit UEFI. That's beyond most.

Most people don't want to change from Windows to Linux. Most XP users never wanted to upgrade and most Windows 7 users didn't want to upgrade. Win11 barely has a Windows majority.
