Supporting BFLOAT16 in ISO_Fortran_env: not recommended
It is great to know that LLVM Flang supports BFLOAT16!
I look forward to trying it in my project ( http://www.libprima.net ), although LLVM Flang is not ready to use last time I tried.
As a side note, the Classic Flang ( https://github.com/flang-compiler/flang ) does not support kind = 3.

Best book on writing an optimizing compiler (inlining, types, abstract interpretation)?
I think a lot of this material is in research papers and code. Take a look a MLTon or Clang Fortran
- Any updates on Flang?

Accidentally quadratic: When Python is faster than C++
I feel like the would have to, if they were to produce a remotely competitive compiler. That's why I'm hoping NVidia's Flang[1] efforts will lead to this aspect of LLVM being cleaned up.

What are some alternatives?
When comparing RFI and flang you can also consider the following projects:
mpich - Official MPICH Repository
rapidyaml - Rapid YAML - a library to parse and emit YAML, and do it fast.
