I don't see how it is applicable here: there is no "LLVM-specific learning" to be applied here, the generic CMake flow will "just work". However it just makes everyone's configuration more cumbersome unnecessarily. I type `-DLLVM_CCACHE_BUILD=ON` directly without thinking about it, similarly for `-DLLVM_ENABLE_LLD=ON`, I wouldn't get the alternatives right.
