// Ways to reduce false positives (that need to be implemented):
// - Don't flag downsizing casts
// - Improved handling of static/global variables
// - Per-block marking of incomplete analysis
// - Handling ~0 values
// - False positives involving silencing unused variable warnings
//
// Other things TODO:
// - Improved error messages
// - Handle mixed assumptions (which assumptions can belong together?)
// - Finer grained false positive control (levels)
