 If not listed above, `auto` is the same as `native`.
 
+!!! warning
+    The `auto` option only includes 32-bit architectures if they are
+    commonly built. `cibuildwheel` 3.0 removed 32-bit Linux builds from `auto`,
+    and a future release may remove 32-bit Windows builds from `auto` as well.
+    If you know you need them, please include `auto32`. Note that modern
+    manylinux image do not support 32-bit builds. If you want to avoid 32-bit
+    Windows builds today, feel free to use `auto64`.
+
+!!! note
+    Pyodide currently ignores the architecture setting, as it always builds for
+    `wasm32`.
