You don't say what warning conditions are tested, or who gets to
decide which conditions are included in the set to be satisfied.

ISTM that what can be done to remove a warning must be part of
the policy of not allowing warnings.  If there is no statement
about what can be done to remove warnings then the "no-warning"
policy is toothless.  In any case no policy for this aspect is
given, and what I'm looking for is a clear statement of policy.
Was that somehow not obvious from my previous comment?
