> Morally, yes, that's reasonable in CodeGen because you're ensuring you get no diagnostics. Practically, that's a convoluted, more expensive, less maintainable way to spell `-Werror` for the test. When diagnostics are introduced, this pattern encourages people to remove the `// expected-no-diagnostics` comment and start adding `// expected-warning {{}}` comments. Running the diagnostic verifier also slows down test execution because of the extra verification step (which adds up over thousands of tests).

Thanks for the tip. I never thought to use `-Werror` that way.
