Anyone seriously using `clang-cl /Wall` is going to receive a pile of `-WcxxNN-compat` warnings that are self-contradictory, and they are going to need to curate a set of clang-specific warning flags anyway.

One possible downside with that, is that you'd easily end up making cl-compatible build files that works nicely with clang-cl but spew warnings with cl.exe. (Although maybe cl.exe's -Wall produce a much safer/saner set of warnings?) But I don't feel strongly about it..
