You seem not to have even understood that your insistence has compelled
David Engster to stop working on GCC-based code completion support
for CEDET.

So, yes, this is harmful to Emacs.
This currently discussion itself might prove similarly harmful in turning
other people off.

Tho, w.r.t to code-completion support, I guess the end result will
simply be that people will go back to working on Clang-based support
since you oppose GCC-based support: the only point of working on
GCC-based support was to satisfy your anti-LLVM stance.  But if even
that is not good enough, then there's no point trying to satisfy you,
and working on Clang-based completion is a much better course since the
tool is much better suited for the task.
