> So besides the bragging rights (I guess?) and discovering latent bugs exposed by the exotic architecture, what's in it for a project to deal with this extra architecture

For me, it's about demonstrating my stuff runs everywhere Go does.

In particular, this makes s390x the only bigendian architecture I can test on "actual hardware" (vs. QEMU binfmt emulation).
