What do you mean with the sentence "when arch/ppc/ was still king"?

Does that mean - in the case we would re-add APUS support in the future, that
these particular changes would not be necessary?

I assume there could be new affordable PowerPC upgrade cards for the Amiga
in the future as the PowerPC cards are still sought after by the Amiga
community, so there is still demand for those on the market.
