Indeed. If you read the clang source code, instead of having 2000 line functions, you have things implemented with something approximating 2000, single line functions. Both are impenetrable. Where GCC abuses macros, clang/LLVM abuses classing and casting. (You wouldn't think that possible, but analyze the clang code for awhile and you'll see what I mean.)
