Everyone agrees that all warnings should be fixed.  Where people
differ is what set of warning conditions should be enabled.

At (or at least near) one end of the spectrum is -pedantic.

At the other end of the spectrum is -Weverything in clang.  (I
confess I am sort of assuming that -Weverything includes every
warning condition known to man, which might not be the case.  But
I trust people can understand what is meant by "-Weverything".)

I expect most people would advocate a point somewhere between the
two extremes.  But there are different ideas about where that
point should be.

Whether warnings can or should be turned into errors is a
separate question.  The first question is what set of warning
conditions should be enabled.  A statement that all warnings
should be fixed is meaningless if there is no indication of
what warning conditions should be enabled.
