I know that, but i'm looking for arguments why RVC could't be kept as
an option, especialy it is only an optimisation option without
behavioral/code changes.
That baseline make sense for heavy linux distributions, where you
expect

Please do not drop it.
Compressed instruction extension has some specific overhead in small
RISC-V FPGA softcore, especialy in the ones which can't implement the
register file read in a asynchronous manner because of the FPGA
technology.
What are reasons to enforce RVC ?

Looks good,

The baseline ISA support requirement for the RISC-V Linux kernel
mandates compressed instructions, so it doesn't make sense for
compressed instruction support to be configurable.
