I know of a lot of embedded designs which do not do register renaming.

I doubt any of those are implementing vector instructions. If they do, then renaming is a relatively small addition in comparison.

Vector instructions are replaced with DSP instructions for embedded applications. Ne speculating SOC with DSPs seem pretty standard?
