By writing the article “Upsetting Opinions about Static Analyzers” we were supposed to get it off our chest and peacefully let it all go. However, the article unexpectedly triggered robust feedback. Unfortunately, the discussion went in the wrong direction, and now we will make a second attempt to explain our view of this situation.

    I have read the original article, but haven’t followed the discussion afterwards. I haven’t even thought about false positives being such a problem, but apparently, it is for some. This article though explained the “problem” of false positives well. I believe this could help some people understand and maybe they will even start using static analysers in their workflow themselves.
