There is not really anything more “native” about using libc++ with clang as opposed to libstdc++ other than the fact that they happened to be developed by the same project. Using clang with libstdc++ is extremely mainstream and normal.

Actually I would bet that even among clang users, libstdc++ is used more commonly on GNU/Linux (IDK for sure, but it’s my hunch).

parent says they wants to use libc++ to catch more bugs. Which is a reasonable use case.
