I'm surprised to hear this, I would have expected a 16bit noop being necessary to align 32 bit instructions.. Is-there a summary of the discussion about this ch

  The spec calls out code density as the reason. > The standard compressed ISA extension described in Chapter 14 reduces code size by providing compressed 16-bit instructions and relaxes the alignment constraints to allow all instructions (16 bit and 32 bit) to be aligned on any 16-bit boundary to improve code density.
