first things first: If you're happy with cmake, you can stop reading now.
Nobody is proposing that LLVM moves off cmake, and nobody is proposing

Just some observation:

LLVM/Clang is a bigger project using CMake for some longer time and
coincidentally, just now, there is a discussion whether they should add
GN build files to their repositories as, let me quote:

"""
cmake is great for many use cases, but in my opinion local day-to-day
development isn't one of them.
"""

Clang: https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/cfe-dev/2018-October/060006.html
LLVM: https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2018-October/127342.html
