If you are silencing a compiler warning, please explain why it is safe to do so. Why
are we calling a function in a non-compatible way, is it a warning false positive?
Because just like that, it just sounds like we are passing the wrong arguments and it
should not be fixed by just silencing the warning, but by fixing the call.
