Like 'restrict', parameter array length information, specified by way of 'static', is ignored outside of function definitions. As was intended (with 'restrict' also). Furthermore, and also like 'restrict', there is no general way to verify at compile time that the stipulated condition holds. Considering the above, it's better to observe the status quo, and leave any diagnostics up to the discretion of the implementation, rather than try to retrofit an incompatible change that would make an infringement be a constraint violation that can't be checked anyway.
