 An object file contains machine code.
Thus, compiler and linker just emit machine code to run on a machine.

But the 3 layer separation of GCC is good for portabilities of new languages
to be supported in GCC to emit native machine code if desired. 

The HW separation of GCC is more versatile than MSVC that sticks with X86 only.

Some compiler authors from cs maybe just don't think in HW very naturally.
