What is the benefit of having multiple compilers for programming languages? Is there a scenario where a GCC compiled rust program would do something that an LLVM one can't do?

Doesn't this cause fragmentation in the rust ecosystem?

P.S.:I understand that people can work on any project they want. And I don't have the right to tell them not to. I'm just curious about the technical reasons for having multiple compilers.
