When I've learned that RISC-V had no carry bit, I couldn't help but think it might have been designed for C to begin with. Sure, they give reasons for this choice, none of them linked to C. Still, it hurts multi-precision arithmetic any language with BigInt would have benefited from (I recall Python, Haskell, and Scheme at the very least).
I'm no hardware designer, though.
