Yes, I've clarified this in the PR description.

The ones I've looked at yes. We could canonicalise such branches in SimplifyInstruction, but I think the main motivation would be for assembly printing (there's a potential secondary motivation for canonicalisation that makes other code easier to write, but I don't think it has an impact as things stand today). As it's such a trivial variant, supporting it directly in the MC layer makes sense to me.
