Dubious. How is "you have to use this magic combination of instructions that compress & execute well" better than having a dedicated instruction?
Also no mention of the binary compatibility issues - which `-march` do you compile your code for? On x86 you have a choice of 3. For RISC-V as far as I can tell there are 96 valid targets.
