So to summarize, you're reimplementing LLVM. Yourself, seemingly.

Which means you'll eventually be competing with GCC and LLVM, once your 
tooling becomes competitive.

VSI is not going to follow that path.

Call back in ~2030, when you've caught up with whatever GCC or LLVM 
will then be offering.
