Did swift gain 32 bit runtime support, or did the orphaned hardware models include the last of the 32 bit CPUs?
32-bit processors were dropped a while ago, by Mountain Lion if I remember correctly.
32 bit ARM has been supported from the start. As others have mentioned the 32bit Intel Macs do not support the latest OS versions anyway.
32 bit apps still run on macOS
