There's about a million ways to make code unreadable, and nobody writes pitch-perfect code that has absolutely no leftover code or comments. And what if you're refactoring and you do multiple builds every couple of seconds? You add a variable, remove it, etc etc. Enabling this warning will just make for a noisy compiler. Keeping variables clean is the responsibility of the programmer and not the compiler. If it doesn't affect the semantics of code the compiler should shut up. Please don't turn the compiler into a reincarnation of Clippy.
