If it would work, then there is no reason at all to change P-a-s. It is
not meant for short term solutions, that's what not-for-us is for.

P-a-s is meant to list what architectures a package is supported for or
will be supported for in short term (if it's not supported on all
architectures in the first place).

Not-for-us is meant to be used for short term architecture issues like
support not fully ready, chroot issues and similar.

P-a-s is not a wanna-build state and as such changes in P-a-s don't
change a wanna-build state. Clearing a wanna-build state usually means
setting it to Needs-Build which does not make sense in this case.
