So I wonder, does it have real benefit to enable them in all configurations? Especially this one. If it does then I think it would be good write the rationale in the commit message.
Most configurations have some code that's specific to it.

For me running clang-tidy takes ~40s. While that's not quick, it's also not exactly unbearable. We have other tests that take a lot longer. By far the slowest check is `readability-identifier-naming`, removing it brings the time down to ~8s. So I don't expect running clang-tidy to take that much longer in the future, since `nasty_macros.compile.pass.cpp` takes ~2s which is effectively just running the front-end. Since we run clang-tidy two times, all the checks except `readability-identifier-naming` take ~4s.
