Because rpm did not adapt appropriately to multilib. Instead
current rpm requires that each packager do the work in each package.

All that is true, but has not been implemented. There should be
some accommodation when .noarch packages actually are present,
but by default an architecture-dependent package should propagate
its _isa to its dependencies.
