I don't think anywhere in the artifact combiner is deciding what's really "better". I think what makes most sense is checking if the vector truncate is legal, but that doesn't really work due to the special constraints on G_TRUNC legality. Checking if the unmerge skips cases where it's still beneficial to do the combine, so I'm not sure what else I would do here
