Andrew seems to mostly disagree with Qualcomm in general and is rejecting the idea not so much out of technical merit but because he doesn't believe them. Qualcomm is definitely not alone with its dislike of the C extension and trying to wholesale dismiss criticisms of it because they're coming from Qualcomm is not appropriate.

SiFive made a technical case[0] on keeping C, too.

>Qualcomm is definitely not alone

It's also worth noting that they tried to appropriate Rivos's opinion, only to be called out[1].
