Fully agree. Rather, I do not think there is a relevant example. But the environment is something like data and should not be part of the header file as it is for histoical reason. I added some times ago a way to extract the environment from the header and make the transition easy (see make u-boot-initial-env). And if the environment is split from the header as CONFIG_USE_DEFAULT_ENV_FILE allows, it is also easier to set an own environment via OE BSP layer without pushing for each small change to U-Boot. Not only, environments often conflict, and what is good for a project becomes evil for another one.
