What makes this 'adaptable' and what makes this a 'framework'?

Seems like a pretty neat fast compiler backend for LLVM. Why the extra buzzwords?

TPDE is a framework for writing a back-end for various SSA IRs. TPDE-LLVM is an LLVM back-end written using TPDE, but TPDE itself is independent of LLVM. The paper also mentions back-ends written for Cranelift's IR and Umbra IR using TPDE.
