1. The reassociate pass that exists right now was *originally* (AFAIK) written to enable CSE/GVN to do better. That particular issue is solvable in other ways, because there are good ways to integrate reassociation into CSE/GVN (and at this point, it would probably be cheaper than -reassociate since it would modify code less, only changing it when there are actual redundancies ) I don't know

There are at least 3 active proposals to add reassociative optimizations in IR: [1] D41574 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D41574>- a new pass for reassociation/factoring [2] D46336 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D46336> - enhance -instcombine to do more reassociation/factoring [3] D45842 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D45842> - add to the existing -reassociate pass to enable factoring
