In an ideal world yes, but the reality is that many people still use
MSBuild, and in that world /MP presumably helps quite a bit. And given that
many people already depend on this functionality of cl, it’s a potential
showstopper for migrating if we don’t support it. That said, if the benefit
isn’t significant that’s a stronger argument for not supporting it imo
