It's too noisy just by itself. First time I tried it, it complained about padding added to structures. When I packed them, it complained about packed structures.



Manually pad them, and it'll complain about unused fields ;)

I've actually had some pieces of code where it was super useful to enable that padding warning as an error. Some complicated C++ types that needed to have identical memory layouts across compilers yet often weren't because of some really nasty shenanigans...

-Weverything is for people who really want to explicitly opt out of every warning they don't like.
