Not if you use the IS_ENABLED() macro. It's supposed to increase compile
coverage for a trade-off in memory usage because like in this case some
fields may be unused.

I find this very convenient because it prevents situations where build
errors don't show up until somebody uses the code in an unusual
configuration. For developers this makes it really easy because they don't
have to test every possible permutation of configuration options.
