FWIW basically -Werror -Wall defines a compiler version specific

That's a very nice way to put it.
Yup. Particularly when one considers that new warnings tend to show up
in -Wall from one release to the next.
I've often suggested that for organizations/projects that are sensitive
to additions to -Wall that they use an explicit set of -W options rather
than the often changing -Wall.
