I'm not sure what you mean by "disagree".  I would assume you mean you
don't think we should enable the warning if it would mean having to insert
any casts like this, but that's not actually disagreeing with me, that's
just a statement that the benefit isn't worth the costs.  Or do you mean
you actually disagree that deciding to enable the warning would require
inserting casts?  I'm confused.
