You have to base opinions like that on that on a full understanding of 
where the ARM ABI spec started from.  The TIS ELF specs were very 
imprecise in some areas, and this was clearly one of them.  The ABI had to 
say something to resolve the ambiguity and clearly the choice made was the 
wrong one in the light of other developments of ELF.  But that's the way 
it goes from time to time.
