Given that the hardware notes
https://www.freebsd.org/releases/11.4R/hardware.html#proc-i386
explicitely claim 80486 compatibility, I'd guess this was not a
consciuous decision but a blunder which wasn't caught (perhaps as
hardware of that vintage is getting rare these days. That box
must be old enough to buy alcohol by now?).
