I don't have a super strong opinion here, but I will say that, over in Zig land, we've been discussing the future of our target triple syntax and came to the same conclusion as Matt regarding combinatorial explosion; almost any target could theoretically have a soft float ABI that combines with any of its platform ABIs. So we're very likely moving towards float ABI being a separate field.
