It's preferable, in my eyes, to keep it an error so that programmers make their 
code conforming instead of just ignoring another warning fly by on their 
terminal.

I don't think clang-cl should mirror every bug in cl, just the important ones.

The counterargument is that accepting MSVC quirks makes it easier to produce valid intermediate ASTs so that consumers can fix their source code automatically with refactoring instead of manually.

That said, if the extension syntax doesn't appear much in the wild then fixing by hand is low-effort so it doesn't matter a great deal either way.
