It would make sense.  For people using 76Ks for internet routing, but who 
don't need any more bandwidth than the classic bus permits, why spend the 
extra $ on a Sup720-3bxl.  Perhaps by that time though, the Sup720-3bxl 
will have been replaced, and there will be plenty of Sup720-3bxl's 
available cheap.  Of course, if the Sup32-3bxl were available now, they 
might actually sell a bunch of them.  Wait until the Sup720-3bxl's been 
superceded, and you'll guarantee people buying the used Sup720-3bxl's 
rather than a just released new Sup32-3bxl.
