Are there any advantages of KCONFIG_STRICT / KCONFIG_WERROR that outweigh these potential issues?
It ensures that we don't silently build with unknown symbols (typo in manual editing, changes to the config, ...), and wonder why CONFIG_UART_DEBUG=y doesn't actually enable serial output on select Intel chipsets (solution: it was renamed 5 years ago).
I put a subset of your question up for discussion[0] earlier today, including a patch that tweaks the behavior to make things pass the *config targets. That should resolve your issue while keeping the safety benefit, no?
