2. I'm not use any IDE, but if you use, it can be important for you. If IDE shows sources tree, unlikely you want to see generated *.clinic.c files in them. This will increase the list of sources almost twice.

A point for the contrary side: In any editor or IDE with syntax highlighting, a .clinic.c file will be highlighted as C code, but it would take extra configuration to handle a .clinic file that way. But that's a relatively minor consideration (AIUI most people won't be looking at the .clinic files much, and for those who do, configure the editor appropriately).
