Doesn't the order of the conflicting options have an impact? The cypress flag is last. Conflicting cpu feature flags is bad anyway and even though many flags can be alternated like optimzation flags with the last one winning, this situation likely has no easy general solution which is predictable. The best solution in this particular case is to disable all tests V9+, VIS, etc which are not V7/V8 since that what this target is for.
