Yes, those who think -Og is no good because they are clang users should perhaps file bug reports or contribute improvements instead.

Most game developers have to target Windows, and the main compiler there is MSVC. The other viable alternative is `clang-cl`, which doesn't have `-Og` either.

Bug reports have been filed, especially against MSVC, but they have been largely ignored over the years. AFAIK, MSVC is not open-source so improvements cannot be contributed either.
