No overflow/carry flag impacting safe overflow checking and bignum performance, the whole conditional move history and backpeddling and state of Zicond, the system for describing feature support is needlessly complicated and just a mess for users outside of embedded, the spec is written more like an academic paper than a CPU manual, vector instructions act like they're written for a coprocessor for some reason, bad frame pointer ABI support, etc.
