Because the value of the call expression is unused, this will most often trigger in a context where the method call can be inferred (especially because you're now highlighting the source range). It might make sense to simply replace the %0 with "this call expression" or somesuch in the diagnostic.
I can remove the function name from the diagnostic. Out of curiosity, in which situations could it be null?
