board computers` that you are following:

Unfortunately I am not familiar with those two packages (obviously
I've heard of u-boot
They are firmware in all cases that add files and nothing more to the compose. If it's
not running on the specific hardware, all of which are aarch64 SBCs, it has no affect on
anything anywhere, it's no different than installing a set of documentation. Without
that knowledge it would be easy enough to query the RPM dependencies/contents and see
that. They're also shipped by default in the standard aarch64 composes without issues
for all other SBSA supported hardware.
Ultimately you might have to trust an architecture specialist that knows the impact of
these and trust that the person wouldn't be requesting it without already having a
full understanding of the probable impact of this change.
I really don't feel like that was an appropriate response.
It's been a pretty standard response from the OSTree team over the years to
rel-eng....
