Intel C/C++ compilers complete adoption of LLVM
I&#x27;m not sure I love this. I mean, LLVM is awesome and everthing, but software monocultures are pretty bad. It&#x27;s not like the situation is dire yet (given that there are also GCC and MSVC), but you can imagine a situation in a couple of years when Microsoft goes &quot;yeah, we&#x27;re also gonna go with LLVM now&quot; and also GCC starting to fade away. It&#x27;s a bit concerning.<p>Also: if icc is going to go with LLVM as a backend, then what is the point of using icc at all? Why not just use clang?
