There are a couple of problems with using Argument Clinic for third
party projects.

First, it makes no stability promises:

"Currently Argument Clinic is considered internal-only for CPython. ..."


Then, for large projects that already use some generated code (like
NumPy), IMO the result would be unmaintainable.


So it would be nice to have a public stable API -- of course there
is no hurry if Serhiy has plans to improve it.
