I tend to agree with Muguel.
The motivation of having cc-version in scripts/Kconfig.include
is to check the presence of the supported C compiler, as C compiler
is mandatory (in contrast, Rust compiler is optional).

If you have a reason to have it in scripts/Kconfig.include
for your future works, it is OK with me, but I cannot judge it.
