+        VD->isStaticLocal()))
     return;
----------------
Hmm, perhaps it would be cleaner if the destructor for array elements were required by the initialization of the array, instead of here. That's how this works for struct aggregate initialization (see `InitListChecker::CheckStructUnionTypes`), and (indirectly) how it works for initialization by constructor, and so on. And it reflects the fact that it's the initialization process that needs the array element destructor, not the destruction of the variable (which never happens).

For the case of aggregate initialization of an array, we appear to fail to implement [dcl.init.aggr]/8:

"""
The destructor for each element of class type is potentially invoked (11.3.6) from the context where the aggregate initialization occurs. [Note: This provision ensures that destructors can be called for fully-constructed subobjects in case an exception is thrown (14.2). — end note]
"""

(But there doesn't appear to be any corresponding wording for default / value initialization of arrays. See also the special case at the end of `BuildCXXNewExpr`.)
