I am on Linux Mint 21.2 (Victoria) Cinnamon amd64 on Intel 7700HQ, and since I now found out there are 293 (dpkg -l | grep i386 | wc -l) 32-bit (i386) packages left from previous years, I don't know if this question is clear, but anyway:

Should I remove all i386 packages? If so, or at least the majority of them, how should I proceed in several manageable steps?

Thank you.

Probably not. Just like 64 bit packages, these packages are subject to dependency management, and if they don't get uninstalled by an apt autoremove, they are a dependency to something else, or explicitly installed.
