Seems like now there are warning facilities built into the language it
might be useful to have warnings emitted in situations like this (a
statement with no side effects) -- things that are truly not error but
are genuinely not useful either.

Or is the general approach of the core Python team to relegate that to
third-party developers (such as PyChecker)?
