Would or could? I agree that this would make an simpler implementation
of the system overall (centralised checking), but to be honest, if I've
done something wrong, I'd rather find out about it sooner rather than
later. If the compiler can tell me, I'd rather it did, instead of
leaving it up to the linker.
