The verbosity is the cruft, in my opinion. Why spend thirty lines of code to demonstrate behavior that could be demonstrated in just five?

Is it, though? I haven't read the source code completely, but there doesn't seem to be anything in there written specifically to handle inheritence as deep as the test had it. I believe the relevant code is in `Expr::isUnusedResultAWarning()`, which has case statements for `case ObjCMessageExprClass` and `case ObjCPropertyRefExprClass`. The behavior doesn't change based on where those are defined, whether on a base class or, as in this change, on a protocol.

Yep, based on the header prefix `XC` I'm guessing it was something in Xcode. And while I appreciate the fact that it's a "real-world" example, I think it's valuable to reduce this sort of thing to the minimum amount of code necessary to demonstrate the behavior.
