It's not about stability or whether the functionality is desired, but layering.
Unit tests having narrow scope is a good thing - if we want system tests that check clangdserver's behavior, they should test clangdserver.
Clients that don't go through clangdserver probably want formatting, but an immediate cleanupAndFormat on each generated change isn't necessarily the right way to do that.
