The patch works, but it's not efficient to have every user patch their own compiler on every release (and forgo the system package manager for upgrades). I was also envisioning adding a warning system, changing the checks to warnings instead of removing them completely, and adding a `-Werror` flag (or maybe `-Wno-error`). It would be a bit more than 5 lines, but still relatively low effort compared to how impactful the project would be.


It might be good to add a respectful comment on the issue on github to emphasize the UX issues it creates.
