It does not matter.  Just as for Windows, you get only one experience
index.  A new MythTV user will likely start with a combined BE/FE.
So, you get one index (I seem to recall you can run the experience
calculator on a 2008 R2 server running on a 4 processor, 32 core
system with on-board embedded vga graphics and the single number
sucked; is that number fair?  Sure.  For some values of experience).

More experienced individuals, as Raymond says, do not need help,
so can make different choices.  Suggesting those different choices
to people asking for "thoughts" actually is the largest disservice to
the community that can be made.  People reading the answer
thinking that the answer is "yes, of course it works" will go off in
directions almost assured to be a disappointment in one way or
another (either in their time, or the resulting experience).  The
"minimum recommendations" (which probably need revision) insure
that the "out of the box experience" is adequate.

So, the next time someone asks "Can MythTV run on ARM", my
recommendation for the only correct answer is "If you have to ask,
the answer is no".
