How is it better than intrinsics support (similiar to gcc/icc etc.)?
It *exists*?

Remember how long it took to get PopCnt support?

PopCnt is not really an intrinsic as it has a fallback counter part and works on all platforms. Intrinsic means that it is really mapped directly to the CPU instruction without any fallbacks.

As the branch of Jeppe shows, it is pretty easy, just requires some continuous work.

How about the rest of the BMI? > TBM? AES-NI? Newer AVX?

See above.
