Yes, but who handles all the support coming from more than _one_ version?
If you offer something like ten versions optimised for the ten (or more) x86
processors in common use today, and half of them are slow on another four
and do not run on the other five of the ten processors, you will have a lot
of confused users.  Remember that not everybody knows what processor they
use - why should a user know?
