Other than for use with PMK, what are the advantages (if any) of an all
alkaline process for film development.

You need a much shorter wash and can forego a hypo-clearing agent step.

Alkaline-fixed film needs about five minutes of wash to be archivally processed, without any washing aid needed.

Hi !
If you follow the Ilford washing sequence, you only need 5 minutes to was your film, without was iad, and whatever fixer you use.
Test had been done which show that washing for film is best done by frequent change of water with agitation than letting the film soak in a more or less stagnant water.
Jobo advice the same when they state that you've to wash using 30 sec. cycles in their CP processors.
And, last but not least, you SAVE water which is becoming scarse.
Enjoy
