Thank you for your input, Adam. Real shame that there's no built-in compiler solution and probably never will be according to [1]. :(

D's competition got stuff like this right:

```
crystal build foo.cr
In foo.cr:6:6

 6 | puts f.x
          ^
Error: read before assignment to local variable 'f'
```

AFAIK diagnostics like that are not possible because Walter doesn't want to implement full blown dataflow analysis in the compiler since it will slow down the compilation speed of dmd
