To a point, yeah. Adding BE support to my (userspace) code revealed some bugs that affected LE, too. Oops! But you can take that too far, too. Like, go ahead and assume power-of-two aligned byte sizes. If someone wants to make an 11 bit byte, let them handle that in their own non-upstreamed fork. No user code’s going to work right on it anyway.
You can be so flexible that it turns everything into a giant slog. I doubt 32 bit support is anywhere near that horrid; commenting on the idea more than this specific case.
