+          if (UNLIKELY(FillContents != NoFill && !Header.OriginOrWasZeroed)) {
+            // If an allocation needs to be zeroed (i.e. calloc) we can normally

I think it would be fine to allow setting it to `PatternOrZeroFill` to go through without warning. As the name implies, it would be valid to implement it using zero init.
