Speaking from 1st hand experience - The off-the-cuff high level benefits 1) Better interopt of different programming models - For example what if someone wants to mix SE+OMP(4). Having the same runtime on the backend should make this a lot easier. (Maybe this particular example may never happen, but I hope you get what I'm talking about) 2) Less duplication of effort for common things...

I can't comment on all the things not directly used by llvm community, but I feel pretty strongly that 1) An independent project like liboffload should exist ; which 2) Projects like SE and OpenMP should both be using it ; and further 3) SE shouldn't just do their own thing because they haven't figured out how to make it work with other projects that already have some overlapping
