The closest I get is "needs specific kernel config", but that argument quickly falls down when looking at other recipes that need that (e.g. udev) and considering out layer strategy (bbappending it for all your machines).

And PACKAGE_ARCH = BASE_PACKAGE_ARCH coupled with COMPATIBLE_MACHINE doesn't make much sense either.
