Urgh, I was a bit afraid you'd ask that :D It is more of a feeling I guess, which is perhaps biased by this patch being particularly in the diagnostics-handling code. However, I suspect that over time, you're going to want to start switching all these uses of `FormatLegacyReason` over to `FormatSarifReason`, and I would want the 'easy way' to be the 'right' way in either case. Having it be a 2-liner, or over-specifying what is otherwise the 'default' behavior is a bit disconcerting.

I haven't done much thinking into the diagnostics architecture over the years. That said, the use of when we'd choose one vs the other isn't completely clear to me yet. ================ Comment at: clang/lib/Basic/Diagnostic.cpp:791 /// FormatDiagnostic - Format this diagnostic into a string, substituting the /// formal arguments into the %0 slots.
