I think the bar at least used to be "useful enough to be on by default or
it shouldn't be there" (the big exception in any analysis based warning
because building the CFG costs some non-trivial % - so we keep /all/ of
those off by default). Doug particularly espoused this notion & I've mostly
been promoting it since then on the assumption that that was still the goal
- though I don't agree with it entirely myself.
