> Honestly as a developer if I miss this up until CI, that's on me. The important part is that these issues are still visible during the local development, even if as warnings, and that the developer knows that they can't just be ignored because they will fail down the road.

Yeah I agree. This has got me thinking a bit more actually about how to optimise build configurations much more deliberately. Dev loop builds vs “normal” (local) builds vs production builds.

I got into the habit of turning on TreatWarningsAsErrors in greenfield .NET projects, trying to be a disciplined developer… But often these warnings can be a distraction during fast iterations… I think I may change my policy…
