On the autopkgtest side we triaged this as a documentation issue, see comment 31. Things now improved:
1. autopkgtest(1) now better documents what --architecture does.
2. Skia (hyask) greatly improved the documentation on the Ubuntu wiki [1] on how to run cross architecture tests, on when --architecture is needed, all correlated by working examples.
I think we can mark the relevant tasks as Fix Released.
