I agree about those being tools. What I disagree upon is that just 
because they're tools we should disregard their warnings, or more 
precisely, I advocate setting common rules about which warnings we can 
disregard and which ones we cannot -- after all, the common rules are 
there already for C warnings and they're quite simple :)
