The burden of proof is the other way around: you need to prove that the benefit
is worth the cost of implementing this feature.
We don't exploit undefined behavior just for the sake of it. We do it where it
brings some benefit (e.g., performance).
The example above doesn't feel like it would give any benefit for real
programs. Hence it's not worth the cost. Please reopen this report if you have
a concrete example from real code where this would help.</pre>
