I wonder how much this matters for python. As long as the important dependencies like numpy runtime dispatch RVV, it should probably be fine.

Zba would probably give a small boost. Zbb gives a substantial boost to perf for applications that use clz/popc heavily, but I don't think that would apply to python.
