Hello all,
I’d like to revisit this topic after some years. Back in 2019 there was agreement that a warning for unused require could make sense, but more investigation was needed because of its dual role (ensuring compilation + enabling macros). Has the stance on this changed since then? Would adding a warning when no macros are used from a required module be considered today? Thanks!
