While I agree with you, the original comment was still valuable for understanding why RISC-V has evolved the way it has and the philosophy behind the extension idea.

Also, it seems at least some of the RISC-V ecosystem is willing to be a little bit more aggressive. With Ubuntu making RVA23 the minimum profile for Ubuntu, perhaps we will not be waiting a decade for it to become the default. RVA23 was only ratafied a year ago.
