Ah, right, that makes sense.

Yes, your understanding is correct.

Agreed, with the nuance that delegation may have been enabled by a FWFT call, or
it may have been pre-existing, as detected by MISALIGNED_SCALAR_EMULATED or
MISALIGNED_VECTOR_EMULATED. For example, I would consider a platform where the
hardware supports misaligned scalar accesses (MISALIGNED_SCALAR_FAST) but not
vector accesses, and M-mode doesn't emulate them (MISALIGNED_VECTOR_EMULATED) to
be delegated for the purposes of this check, even if M-mode doesn't implement
the FWFT extension.
