Direct and to the point. The original intent was to allow for asymmetric isolation (e.g. offloading RCU callbacks while keeping specific timers local for very specialized real-time monitoring). However, I agree that for 99% of use cases, this is unnecessary complexity. In V13, I will consolidate these independent enum types into a unified housekeeping mask to simplify the configuration and reduce the "insane configuration space" you mentioned earlier.
