Would I be correct to interpret this as "turn them all off with -release"? E.g., "dmd -check=in a.d" is unnecessary; it's equivalent to "dmd a.d" "dmd -release -check=in a.d" turns off all checks except in contracts. If adding any check turns everything else off, that seems strange; that said, wouldn't -check=off be equivalent to -release? Do we need -check=off and -check=on, since it just duplicates the -release toggle? I do like adding the -check switch because it reads far more naturally than -release=in, etc. But as far as readability, only using -check once -release is passed to disable everything makes sense, as using -check shouldn't disable other checks, and -release shows intention better than starting with -check=off --Ryan
