Unfortunately, it eventually becomes necessary, as e.g. if you tighten the
warnings you can't include MS's own headers without getting a slew of
warnings. In C++ it's much worse, as you start getting "warnings" about
stuff like functions not getting inlined, or constant expressions in
template expansions (often the whole *point* of a template class is to get
constant expressions abstracted away!). Etc. But, in general, I heartily
agree.
