You overlook that it's a very old compiler - 30 years. In its day it had
maybe 100,000 users.
People do still use it today, to compile dmd for Win32 for example, and
nobody has yet
EVER
commented on that feature, unless I prompted them, when
I have pointed it out many times over the decades, and the response is
always:
SO WHAT
WHO CARES
etc. So please forgive my grumpiness about if clang implements it,

30 years (pitifully) seems to be a plausible time frame for an idea of
merit to become fashionable.
