I agree it'd be nice for the download template to be clever and filter its output. However the fact that it's very very difficult to know what your CPU is actually capable of running (especially for arm64, armel, armhf and powerpc, powerpc64 and ppc64el) and the name for the architectures changes between distributions too.
So for now, we expect our users to know what architecture their CPU is capable of running and then select something which has a chance to work.
