SHXADD is available on a single ALU on SiFive x280, but ADD/ADDI are available on both ALUs. x280 supports C so this patch would compress, but I could envision other CPUs that support SHXADD with lower performance and don't support C. Should we canonicalize a copy SHXADD to ADD earlier?

This is the kind trade-off I wondered about. I oversimplified a bit in my summary.
On the one hand: Although canonicalising earlier is theoretically better for this reason, it also seem defensible to optimise for existing real-world and likely future hardware where unless something big changes, it's hard to imagine it doesn't have RVC support. Especially as this is more of a micro-optimisation that we're mainly motivated to do to keep output clean and non-surprising for anyone doing perf analysis.
On the other hand: there's an attraction and probably minor engineering advantage to keeping differences between compressed/non-compressed as minimal as possible. And if non-C hardware did appear, our future selves would be thankful.
Overall I'm still torn...
