It is difficult to follow the notes when the same types are used for distinct error cases. If it isn't too laborious, I think it would be helpful to introduce new types for each error that is exercised. That makes it easier to understand precisely what changed when diagnostic changes happen with new development. See `clang/test/SemaSYCL/sycl-kernel-launch.cpp` as an example where each error case has a comment expressing what is intended to be tested, and where all associated notes are colocated with their corresponding error.
