LLVM is not a compiler frontend. It’s the middle- and back-ends; Clang is the frontend.
Neither Rust nor C is inextricably linked to LLVM either, as I’m sure you’re aware. And the former doesn’t align with the abstract machine assumed by the latter in important regards, like forward progress.
The rest of this is just a screed. I’m not here to defend his honor, and you shouldn’t waste your time posting about it on random sites on the Internet.
