+Failure to properly initialize base class sub-objects during copy construction
+can result in undefined behavior, crashes, data corruption, or other unexpected
+outcomes. The check ensures that the copy constructor of a derived class
+properly calls the copy constructor of the base class, helping to prevent bugs
+and improve code quality.
+
+Limitations:
+
+* It won't generate warnings for empty classes, as there are no class members
+ (including base class sub-objects) to worry about.
+
+* It won't generate warnings for base classes that have copy constructor
+ private or deleted.
+
+* It won't generate warnings for base classes that are initialized using other
+ non-default constructor, as this could be intentional.
+
The check also suggests a fix-its in some cases.
