So that's because the Poky layers are a version higher than the
oe-core layers.  Once you stop using Poky the version drops.  Annoying
but you won't have to do it again.

Yes.  bitbake doesn't know that "nfc" only actually impacts a few
recipes, so a changed DISTRO_FEATURES means a new toolchain which
means everything else rebuilds.

Half a day for a build suggests you're building in a VM or a slow
laptop: I recommend using a desktop machine with plenty of RAM.
