Luke (author of Hazard3) provided some context regarding including the Hazard3 cores alongside the M33's:
> I can't compare the sizes of the two cores. The final die size would likely have been exactly the same with the Hazard3 removed, as std cell logic is compressible, and there is some rounding on the die dimensions due to constraints on the pad ring design. I can say that we taped out at a very high std cell utilisation and we might have saved a few grey hairs during final layout and STA by deleting the RISC-V cores.
