The original intent of unclustered scheduling was to increase occupancy in the kernel when it was possible to do so if we tried scheduling without mutations. The extra checks for excess RP and spilling were added later. There were concrete cases that motivated both of these changes.

That's not to say I don't approve of the new approach, any simplification of the current logic would be welcome, but I think it needs to be supported by performance numbers both on compute and graphics.
