Avoid enabling the options (EBBR / EFI_LOADER) by default, to save space.
Resync the CONFIG options also.

NAK. It's very much intentional that we have EFI_LOADER, and then
looking ahead, any other options that would be required to be EBBR
compliant, be enabled by default on platforms that can support them,
rather than optional.
As you can tell, I'm not convinced that EBBR is a good idea, even
though I can see it is expedient. Anyway I do appreciate your clear
guidance and direction on this sort of thing and I'm sure many others > do also.
Having a bunch of non-standardized methods to start an operating system
is not really compelling. Currently UEFI is the only widespread,
operating system independent boot standard.
