I agree, the hiding of "irrelevant" information to make the page smaller has
gone too far. When there is an autopkgtest regression on one architecture,
it is useful to be able to quickly see the corresponding history for the
tests on other architectures, without having to walk autopkgtest.ubuntu.com
to find the information.

Could you file a bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/britney to track this?
