I've seen examples of software projects not supporting 32-bit
architectures - but for the case of "we don't provide binaries for
32-bit and don't do as much testing". The example that springs to mind
is influxdb (
https://influxdb.com/download/ , about half way down)
and they also provide a link to the Go language that has done the
same.
In those cases it is "just" an additional barrier in that you might
need to compile things yourself.
