Not true, the Pixel 7 has already removed 32-bit support. It's a 64-bit exclusive OS and won't let you sideload 32-bit apps.

That's not exclusive to the OS. The Pixel 6 running Android 13 can install 32 bit apps, but the Pixel 7 running Android 13 cannot.

So there's a possibility that Android 14 will still allow 32 bit apps on all other devices other than the Pixel 7. Pixel 7 and onwards might be where Google forces out 32 bit apps, which personally isn't a huge deal, because every app I have is 64 bit.
