In the i686 discussion in #Fedora we currently hear quite a lot of voices in support for the Steam client, but not that much of other use cases.
If you have anything specific using i686 packages on Fedora, which is _not_ Steam, this is a good time to mention it, so that your use cases are not lost.

And please do not panic, it is a discussion, nothing is decided yet :)
F44 Change Proposal: Drop i686 support (system wide)
Drop 32-bit multilib support on x86_64 and stop building packages for i686 This is a proposed Change for Fedora Linux. This document represents a proposed Change.Fedora Discussion
I think that's kind of implied, in the sense that if regular x86_64 Fedora doesn't run i686 apps any more then aarch64 Fedora (on its own) wouldn't be expected to either. So the FEX rootfs isn't really its own issue, if Fedora loses 32-bit support then the rootfs also loses it and that's not really any worse.
On the other hand, if people still expect 32-bit containers to work and be efficient, we still need the FEX build time mini x86 sysroot to build the 32-bit thunks. That's only a tiny handful of packages but it's kind of important...
