One reason is that the most commonly used tools that generate `compile_commands.json` files, like CMake, do not create entries for header files. Users need to turn to ad-hoc post-processing or third-party tools like CompDB <https://github.com/Sarcasm/compdb> to add entries for header files, to even have a place to put the `-x c++header` option.
