I'm quite interested in this discussion. Has it happened on mailing lists?

In general, previous SoCs also gave the possibility of controlling all
the bus clocks separately, in addition to bulk gates, but there was no
real advantage in using those, while burdening the clock tree with
numerous clocks. Isn't Exynos7 similar in this aspect?
