--- Comment #3 from Mathias LANG <pro.mathias.lang at gmail.com> ---
My issue with such a check is that the code is not *clearly* wrong.
As a result, it can trigger false positive (very easily, given D's
metaprogramming abilities) and those are extremely frustrating to the user and
mostly negate the benefits of the warning (because the one benefiting from it
are not the ones "paying the price").

It's been 6 years, do you think we should close this ?
