They could have used RV32 or even RV32E architecture (RV32 with 16 registers only, gets rid of a lot of area occupation in the smallest chips) and make it far more useful. RV architecture can scale down quite a bit, I don't buy the claim that it just won't fit in 180nm. That's the node that the first Pentium 3's were designed for!
