<pre>Thanks for your feedback.
I understand we may have a different point-of-view due to different fields of
application.

I am sure you are fine with it, as are many other libraries. What I am saying
is that turning them on may well help you find bugs that you could easily miss
otherwise. At least this has been my experience over the years. It is a bit
like using assert() and turning assertions on. If you are worried about
performance, you can of course revert to the default in production.</pre>
