 > "It isn't required to support every 64-bit architecture, but for each
 native 32-bit architecture you support you must include the corresponding
 64-bit architecture."

 Hrm. That's been helpful and seems indeed to indicate that we need both if
 we ship Tor Browser for armv7 and x86 architectures. That's unfortunate
 but we won't be able to ship x86_64 support by August 2019. We should come
 up with a plan, though, to solve this problem if it indeed turns out to
 throw x86 users under the bus.
