Maybe we should split or delete those posts then
Split to warn people/Delete to avoid users running those commands

Done - with the post in question edited, rather than removed.
People should know of the command.

Me too.
But that one is a lesson learned the hard way.

@Aravisian, tried to help a user today and almost made the same mistake...i heard your voice and thought...oops almost 
If you are on 64 bit os DO NOT USE this 32 dependencies at all. Even if it is from a trusted source! Run it on 32-bit machine only
I wonder why they dont warn 64 bit users about this.
It is tricky. 32 bit apps usually can be run no problem.
The thing to watch out for is when installing something needs to remove existing apps.
This is one good reason I always install from terminal. It Tells You.
It tells you if it needs to remove the Zorin OS Desktop Environment to install that thing you are trying to install. It has a confirmation dialog.
Gnome-Software does not. User @Frog has felt that pain first-hand.
