Why would you need to bootstrap Rust on a T2 platform? You already have a rustc build for that platform, can't you just use it? It may be buggy yes, but if you have a built compiler you should already be a good deal of the way to having a working compiler since you can "just" run the tests and see which ones break. Descriptions of what actual problems you ran into would be greatly appreciated, especially since riscv64-musl isn't a target mentioned at all in https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support.htm... and I do want to know what makes it so hard to get a platform from T2 to T1.

I also resent the insults that I am blindly "towing the party line", I truly don't believe that with the market share POWER9 and RISCV have it is worth putting in the effort of supporting them unless you are a "true beliver" in them, in which case you can put the work in yourself if you want to. If this is unreasonably hard (which it does appear to be since you weren't able to make any progress in a week) it would be much better to hear what actually made it so hard instead of whining that the Rust devs won't support your esoteric platform for you.
