Geez, why don't we just write our own compiler and linker, assembler,
and everything? Let's get every last bit of GNU out of our system, for
no reason! This kind of NIH is not necessary, and only hurts us by
misdirecting our energies.

Seriously, I'd love for this to happen. Most GNU software is a hopeless,
gruesome mess that should be dragged out and shot. Getting rid of as
much as possible, gradually, is a Very Good Thing; this is how we get
stability and performance improvements.
