I'm fairly sure the main answer is "lots of built-in checkers", much 
more than flymake still has now.

It also has a minor mode map, to invoke the errors buffer or jump 
between the errors. Though the latter is easy-ish to port over.

On the subject of choice fatigue, would we hesitate to include lsp-mode 
in NonGNU ELPA, now that Eglot is in the core? I feel that would be the 
wrong move.
