[ECOS] Silly question about ARM thumb

If the code is smaller and faster, why aren't all ARM programs compiled
w/ARM thumb?

Tell me about the downside, I can live with the upside :-)

I'm pretty happy with code-size on the Atmel EB40a, so I'm a bit 
averse to changing things.

This posting quotes 20% code size decrease and 50% speed increase.
