We only have a limited amount of manpower, so we have to prioritize. If we stick to GCC we have to fix a lot of compiler incompatibilities before even attempting anything new, let alone having to drag some vey legacy language features along. The main point of moving to clang only is to liberate those manpower from fixing those incompatibilities and put them into creating something new.
