I suspect it might not be that uncommon in a corporate environment, but
I don't know for sure these days. I agree with you about wanting to
catch likely errors. A standard needs to reference other specs, and
ought not to disallow legal constructs, but can suggest warnings, or
allow implementations to warn.

It then becomes a quality of implementation issue.
