The LLVM moving-parts, yes, but you need to write code to use them too, and it's not a give that there are more moving parts in generating C output that those.

That's not always a bad thing for error rates, if the alternative is figuring out to use a massive library correctly.
No, but it's a given that the LLVM moving parts have been already written, and are tested by millions.
Your moving parts in your own solution, you'd have to write yourself.
