My understanding is that this made things backward-compatible.  Even
if your sgidefs.h doesn't define _MIPS_SIM_ABI32 (because it pre-dates
the existence of multiple ABIs), they will still compare equal.  If
your code is written with multiple ABIs in mind, it's entitled to
require _MIPS_SIM to be defined to non-zero, after including
<sgidefs.h>.

If your proposal still guarantees this set of assumptions, I don't
have any problem with it.
