No. The actual line is:
| We project that applying these rules for etch will reduce the set of
| candidate architectures from 11 to approximately 4 [...]
"We project that the architectures that will have enough porter support"
is not the same as "We refuse to allow any but the following".
It is not a pronouncement, it is proposal, with guesses involved. Is it
really that difficult to understand?
