Earlier quoted context omitted.
There is no need to do weird math, as we know the actual numbers. 6502 has 3510 transistors. SERV at CMOS occupies 2.1kGE. SERV is smaller than 6502.
Gate Elements are multiple transistors. And that count doesn't include SERV's register file.
So you're saying they'd end up in the same ballpark?
In that case, I'd rather have RISC-V's programming model.
