Why? We did add compilation database support to cmake in the first place.
Back then I did not support windows, btw, so I'd be surprised if that
worked now without also using the arguments format that has already been
added to the spec for that reason.

I don't think this will break mingw. Mingw is still Windows, and still uses

I'd like to see a stronger reason why adding arguments support to cmake is
not the right thing to do.
