Isn't this currently a no-op, as all platforms that have timespec_get (namely: glibc, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, macOS, Solaris 11) also have clock_gettime?
Yes, it's just future-proofing.
Would it make sense to prefer timespec_get over clock_gettime on some platforms?
Not as far as I know. On glibc, timespec_get simply calls clock_gettime, so it's a bit faster to call clock_gettime directly. I imagine other implementations are similar.
