Let me jump to this. This is core for programmable logic where HW designers of 
this IP added couple of feature which can be enabled or disable based on 
customer need. It means it is not SW option if ECC is enable but it is HW choice 
if ECC is present in the HW or not.
Selection if ECC should be used is up to every customer to decide.
We are not able to get information why customers choosing ECC enabled/disabled 
but I can imagine that with ECC disable less fpga resources are used.
