We never supported host-model CPUs on ARM and we don't want to support them even once patches for direct detection of host CPU are merged. And since using host CPU definition for host-model CPUs exist only for backward compatibility, we should not use it for any host-model support added in the future. Such enhancement should exclusively use the result of query-cpu-model-expansion. Until proper host-model support is implemented for ARM (if ever), we need to make sure the detected host CPU is not accidentally used for host-model CPUs.
