I don't agree.

"If a package is declared Multi-Arch: foreign, preference should be given
to a package for the native architecture if available; if it is not
available, the package manager may automatically install any available
package, regardless of architecture, or it may choose to make this an
option controlled by user configuration."

In other words by marking it as foreign you risk that it will resolve to
the targeted arch.
