clang-tidy's native way to enable/disable diagnostics is applied to the static analyzer twice: first time when the list of enabled checkers is created (and then core checkers are always added to that list), and the second time - to each diagnostic generated by the static analyzer (this time the original check name filter is applied, without core checkers). This already works consistently from a user's perspective: https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/MEvSsP

Are there any benefits in using the new CheckerSilenceVector mechanism in clang-tidy?
