If you're asking something else, can you rephrase the question? 

Sorry if I wasn't too clear.  My question really should have read "why
do we have to special case Thumb2" ? The linker should be able to
veneer the t->  a calls either through the veneering sequence (in case
of T1 without blx) or convert the bl to a blx (modulo the case with
out of range branches). As I said I'm probably missing something here.

Maybe we don't. It just seems neater to emit blx on arches that have it.
