Yes, there will not be an error at activation time. However, if you have anything installed that required py27-numpy to be universal, it will now be broken.

I don't have any answers for you, beyond the usual reasons why a port is installed universal, which are:
- you explicitly asked for it to be installed universal
- you installed another port universal that depends on this port
- you installed another port that is 32-bit only, and you are on a 64-bit machine, and the other port depends on this port (You can check if the other port says "supported_archs i386 ppc" (or the other way around))
- it enables the universal by default, and possibly requires the universal variant to be used (You can check the portfile to see if "default_variants +universal" appears)
