Could you, please, discuss this with server team? For sure, there are
32bit (non-free) applications which now run on Ubuntu. Removing 32bit
server kernel (yes, I'm aware one could use 'generic' kernel) will
remove Ubuntu from some data centers.

Anyway, please, discuss this with server team. Thank you.
