It would seem that the real issue here is the poor definition of a byte in ISO C. A better proposal for a new rule would be "A byte shall always be regarded as 8 bits".
Because... making a byte 16 bits or 555 bits is like asking to have your product shot down in horrible ways over and over until everyone is fed up and it becomes obsolete.
I don't think it is motivated to change MISRA-C to support some weird >25 years old CPU core.
