Wonder how big of a factor that the upstream PS4 OS codebase now using LLVM/Clang was in this decision. Even if the PS4 wasn't FreeBSD based I can see the switch making sense on it's own tbh.

Doesn't seem like any factor, there. The PS4 is using FreeBSD 9 as the kernel, which was still built with gcc.
