SETP is used rarely to compute parity, though it doesn't really save anything if you can use POPCNT. PF is also used by floating point comparisons with a different meaning though that is not useful for the Arm extension from Apple.

AF indeed is basically unused. The problem for both is that you need them for accurate emulation "just in case".
