    Is it relevant in any way?

    I'm sure Debian can boot without MEMORY_HOTREMOVE, or BRIDGE, or
    NUMA_BALANCING, or BPF_JIT, or NFS_FS, yet all of them are enabled. Let
    me know if you want hundreds more examples.

    Just like 9P_FS, NFS or UBIFS.

    It's a defconfig. It's whatever people want it to be. Or we need to come
    up with a clearly defined set of rules of what is acceptable in that
    defconfig or not, and prune every option that isn't.
