Hi Celeste, Thanks for the proposal and researching the options. Using multi-arch images seems like a good way to reduce the complexity associated with correctly selecting the architecture on the runner. It sounds like there may be implications for release process, which future release managers may need to be aware of, and there might be an increase in some test suites time now once we build ARM images.
Left a few comments on the doc and happy to help with PR review when it is ready. bcc'ing a few folks who might have feedback or to whom this proposal might be of interest.
