No.  This only affect the debug info for "struct-like types", meaning,
in C++, classes and structs.  It doesn't affect inlining.  You're
right that it will keep info about static types.  And if you are
compiling foo.cc, it will keep info about class foo.

This is documented with the -femit-struct-debug-detailed option.
