About reinventing the wheel... It is not about reinventing GDB.

You can compare this story with designing a car: You can use an engine designed for an older car, this saves you the work of designing a new engine. But the existing engine does not fullfill all needs of the new car. So, some designers want to design a new engine which perfectly fits in the car and therefore gives many advantages. Others look up to the work needed and want to use the existing engine, with some modifications and live with the rest of its quirks.

Both are valid engineering decisions.
