That's a Zephyr thing. Same on STM32, add an otherwise trivial driver for some peripheral that has a bunch of dependencies, and then your codesize explodes by 60KB.

Nordic is one of the largest contributors to Zephyr though. I get the feeling that they are pushing hard to make it the de-facto RTOS for embedded stuff.
I feel like the whole Zephyr ecosystem is geared towards reducing "time to blinky on every devkit you have" at the expense of mid- to late-stage development efforts. Driver maintainers want their stuff to work out of the box, so they enable _everything_ and code size becomes the end customer's problem.
grumble grumble, I don't like where this is heading.
